Inclusion and Equity Learning Event 3: CPD and Career Development Opportunities for Teachers with disabilities

In the build-up to the Global Disability Summit 2025 to be held on 2-3 April in Germany, the Inclusion and Equity in Teacher Policies and Practices Thematic Group are delighted to invite you to attend three knowledge exchange learning sessions on policies and practices on teachers with disabilities. 

This is the last of three learning sessions. The session will be interactive and participatory. Three members will make short presentations on the topic and participants will be invited to share their experience, evidence and learning in breakout rooms. The session will be facilitated in English; however, we will welcome if there any volunteers who would like to facilitate breakout sessions in different languages.  We will use Team's chat function which allows to translate the conversation in different languages.

 In this session, we are going to focus our discussion on policies and practices on continuing professional development opportunities and career paths for teachers with disabilities. 

• What kinds of opportunities are provided for people with disabilities to participate in teacher training programmes? 
• What are the key challenges and gaps in policy related to supporting teachers with disabilities and their professional growth? 
• What recommendations can be made to better support teachers with disabilities and promote greater inclusion and accessibility in their teaching contexts?  
• What roles Edtech can play in increasing access of teachers with disabilities to continuing professional development? 

As an output of this session, we will produce a knowledge brief.
