the path to inclusion

THE PATH TO INCLUSION is part of the set of educational materials to support the inclusion of children with spina bifida and hydrocephalus in kindergartens and schools, developed under the Multi-IN project. The chronicles and personal stories complement the basic Multi-IN training materials – the general guidelines, manuals and educational video courses that aim to support the multidisciplinary efforts of professionals and families towards inclusive education of pupils with spina bifida and hydrocephalus.

And while the other Multi-IN resources summarize global experience and good practice to help stakeholders find the right direction in their work with students with spina bifida and hydrocephalus, this document contains the personal experiences of children and young people with spina bifida and hydrocephalus in the educational system in Bulgaria and Slovakia.

We believe that everyone with an attitude towards inclusive education will find something for themselves and be enriched by reading these stories. They will be even more useful for professionals in the education system who often do not have personal experience in working with students with spina bifida and hydrocephalus (due to the prevalence of these disabilities).
