Inclusive environments Sample Clauses

Inclusive environments. ‌ A useful and inspiring source is the ‘Index for inclu- sion’43, originally developed for schools and education but in every aspect of it transferable to other environ- ments like leisure, recreation, sports or work. The bottom line of the index for inclusion is “Reducing exclusion for children with disabilities is reducing exclusion for all.” (Xxxx Xxxxx) Inclusion is about developing communities for all, a development that arises from a framework of values. So giving beyond advocacy to policy, practices, cultures and values we must put inclusive values into action. These values are the answer to the question of how we should live here together. ‘Here’ refers to the planet, ecology, and sustainability. Together refers to relation, participation, equality. The Index focuses on develo- ping an inclusive language. It introduces the concept of ‘Barriers to learning and participation’ which refers to the fact that all kinds of disability labels often lead to low expectations. So instead of using labels we talk about barriers in the environment. It is an appeal to the en- vironment to eliminate these barriers rather than the expectation that a child with a disability should adapt to the environment. Creating inclusive cultures
