Synopsis

Exploring and addressing disability in higher education, this key title focuses on education as a human rights topic. It provides empirical examples and analyses selected national policies in global contexts to discuss how to facilitate equal access to higher education for students and academics with disabilities.

Based on the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD), the author demonstrates how to facilitate equal access to higher education and raise awareness of disability as a human condition and an aspect of diversity in higher education. This book discusses dilemmas with regard to implementing universal design and individual accommodation in order to facilitate for diversity of individuals among students and staff.

With chapters covering implementation of the UN CRPD, ableism, recognition theory, disability, universal design, and individual accommodation, this book focuses on the institutional perspective – what are the universities’ responsibilities and how can universities and teachers respond by implementing and practising inclusive policies? It is ideal reading for anyone interested in addressing the topic of disability in higher education.
