N for nose: state of the education report for India 2019; children for disabilities

Submitted by admin on
Abstract

The report documents the state of education of children with disabilities (CWDs) in India, covering children below the age of 18, and attempts to provide a comprehensive overview based on available secondary literature, and building on prior research commissioned by UNESCO New Delhi. Although the authors believe that the idea of inclusive education encompasses every child, they have, in this report, focused on children with disabilities, who count among the most disadvantaged and vulnerable of groups experiencing exclusion and segregation. Since the main purpose of this report is to highlight the key dimensions of education of children with disabilities as evident in the present times, the report does not include a discussion of historical factors that may have influenced the current scenario.
