Webinar: Inclusion of children with disabilities in education - Learning from new household survey tools
Children with disabilities remain disproportionately excluded from education in many countries. However, under the SDGs agenda and the Convention for the Rights of People with Disabilities, countries are committed to leaving no child behind. In order to do so, they need better data. Household surveys can potentially provide great insight on the educational participation and learning of children with disabilities. This webinar introduced new tools and explain how they can be used, and present the early results from ASER’s work in Pakistan and UNICEF’s work in multiple countries.
