How can we influence governments to change their national policies towards disabled children and other marginalised groups?
The starting point for influencing policy should be human rights and the improvement of education for all children. Existing national and international legislation and documentation on IE should be collected and used as reference material to initiate policy development. The United Nations (UN) Convention on the Rights of the Child (1989) and UNESCO’s Salamanca Statement and Framework for Action (1994) are crucial documents for all IE practitioners wishing to influence policy development.
