Resume

Dette projekt har til formål at styrke retten til inkluderende kvalitetsundervisning for børn med handicap og behov for specialundervisning i Armenien. Med støtte fra civilsamfundet vil projektet opnå de samme resultater i hovedstaden Jerevan som det nuværende inkluderende undervisningsprogram i Tavush. Det vil ske ved at efteruddanne lærere og opbygge psyko-pædagogiske støttefunktioner i 65 inkluderende skoler og fire regionale psykopædagogiske centre. Forældre vil blive opmuntret til at slutte sig til 65 støttegrupper. Disse grupper vil blive en del af et større web-baseret netværk, der på nationalt niveau mobiliserer forældre til at kæmpe for deres børns ret til inkluderende kvalitetsundervisning. Civilsamfundet vil hjælpe vigtige interessenter fra uddannelsesområdet med at overføre Tavush-modellen for et inkluderende undervisningsystem til en storby-kontekst og fremme forsøg på at videreudvikle og kopiere modellen over hele Armenien
