Are we fulfilling our promises? Inclusive education in sub-Suharan Africa: Data and Evidence for Education Programs (DEEP) Project

Enviado por admin em
Abstract

Are we fulfilling our promises? discusses the state of disability-inclusive education, blending globally relevant observations with specific examples from across Sub-Saharan Africa. Interwoven among the report’s five sections are visualizations of the data: Section 1 is a description of inclusive, integrated, and segregated schooling for children with disabilities. Section 2 reviews declarations, laws, policies, and funding allocations through which Sub-Saharan African countries prioritize or recognize inclusive education. Section 3 reviews data on school access, including school attendance and school completion of learners with disabilities, as well as the barriers to enrollment and retention. Section 4 reviews the “school experience” for learners with disabilities, including how their experience is affected by the instructional accommodations, accessibility of facilities, and bullying and violence. Section 5 reviews USAID initiatives to support inclusive education in Sub-Saharan Africa. The review closes with a discussion of conclusions related to policies, finance, barriers, and data, and donor support for disability-inclusive education.
