Features: This book is a result of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) meticulously organizing over 40 experts from more than 30 countries. Through a process of topic selection, writing, review, and revision, it presents collective experiences in implementing inclusive education across different nations. The nine topics and the rich case studies provided in this book can serve as the best reference for current educational reform projects being vigorously promoted in China, such as quality-oriented education, new curriculum reform, and inclusive education for students with special needs. It is a reference book for both administrators and implementers. The core of inclusive education is the commitment to view education as the foundation for individual and societal development. This perspective stems from the belief that the right to education is a fundamental human right and a necessary foundation for a more just society.
