L’éducation inclusive nécessite une planification stratégique par les enseignants, les responsables et les établissements d’enseignement pour créer un environnement d’apprentissage qui permet aux élèves d’être au cœur du changement. Dans un effort pour suivre les développements à l’échelle mondiale, Madame Wadad Wazen Gergy, Cheffe de l’UNTE, a représenté l’Université Saint-Joseph de Beyrouth (USJ) dans le cadre des 2 journées de travail pour le renforcement des capacités, les 6-7 octobre 2022,organisées par l’Organisation des Nations unies pour l’éducation, la science et la culture (UNESCO) en coopération avec la Commission économique et sociale des Nations Unies pour l’Asie occidentale (ESCWA) et consacrées pour le Plan quinquennal d’éducation générale du Liban.
The workshop’s objective is to build a national policy and implement inclusive education for learners with disabilities, to provide participants with skills to increase the quality of education and to anticipate and remove learning barriers. Participants discussed different strategies to develop simple curricular content to help students with disabilities to achieve quality inclusive education and to implement simple practices aimed at making academic institutions places where all students can actively learn.
The promotion of opportunities for inclusive education is a worldwide effort, and has been an integral part of USJ’s mission since its foundation. USJ is committed to creating an equitable and inclusive learning environment for all in compliance with the UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and to integrate with the economy for future economic progress and social development. This can be achieved through building a network and chain of partnerships between Universities and professionals in order to align strategies to help transform higher education to provide a supportive and interactive, digital, adaptive, and dynamic student learning experience.
