Major Highlights

Capacity Building Workshop on "Strategies of Inclusive Education for Children with Disability" held
(21-23 & 27-29 December 2010)


 


Two Capacity Building Workshops on "Strategies of Inclusive Education for Children with Disability" were held on 21 to 23 December and 27 to 29 December, 2010 respectively. CAMPE organized both the residential workshops in cooperation with Civil Society Education Fund (CSEF) and Centre for Disability in development (CDD). The objective of the workshop was to raise awareness of the Teachers' Union representatives about the importance to include disable children in formal education system and to exercise the roles and responsibilities of teachers to ensure inclusive education for the disabled children. A total of 50 representatives from Government, non-government,  Teachers' Union and Community Watch members along with CAMPE staff members participated in the workshop.

 

  


Participants attended in group work in some sessions like 'Develop Supporting Materials'; 'Create Accessible Environment' etc. for children with disability. The sessions contributed in enhancing participant’s awareness level about the requirements/special needs of children with disability in the classroom, the process of disable friendly classroom facilitation, ensure accessibility, and providing supportive devices. There was a school visit component included in the session which demonstrated the process of application of the learning in real life situation. The team visited "Prodip School" which was funded by 'Dark and Light Blind Care - The Netherlands' under the supervision of CDD. The participants talked to the students of the school, observed the process of education which was very useful experience for them.

 


The expectation was to create a more positive attitude of teachers across the country towards the children with disability as well as to increase the awareness and capacity of the teachers about their roles and responsibilities for including disabled children in formal education system through the workshops. After participating in the training workshop, the participants expressed their views in such a way that this training program was a necessary requirement for every teacher to include the disable children in formal education system. They also mentioned that most of the trainers in the sessions were disable person that helped to create inspiration among the teachers and also would help to be more committed to their responsibility. The participants also told that Government, Society, Parents, Administration all are included with the activities of education. They suggested to include them all in discussion, to make them aware and to work together with commitment for ensuring inclusive education in Bangladesh. They also mentioned that they now believe that inclusive education is not only important for the children with disability, it would also be helpful for all the children in the class. Through the workshop the teachers are now capable enough to build an environment where a child with special needs can continue his/her education like other children.
