The Space of Inclusive Education
Voices from Ukraine and Beyond
Series: - Studies in Inclusive Education, Volume: 53
Known as the breadbasket of Europe, Ukraine, presently being in the center of international concerns and hopes, shows new dimensions of dignity and determination for which it may be called the school of the world. This collection of texts on inclusion of persons with special educational needs and disabilities from international and Ukrainian scholars was mostly written before the biggest war in Europe since WWII. This volume is the first book for the English reading public on Ukraineâs view on inclusive education. It is always useful to start from the backgrounds and witness the future development.
