The Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 4 on education calls for inclusive and equitable quality education and lifelong learning. A Guide for ensuring inclusion and equity in education, published by UNESCO, aims to provide practical support to Member States to review the role of equity and inclusion in existing policies and decide what changes are necessary. The guide contextualizes and defines the concepts of inclusion and equity, and is intended to inform and promote inclusive and equitable education at all levels of education.
The guide recommends that teams acknowledge that inclusive education requires a change in the whole education system. It is intended to support countries in embedding inclusion and equity in educational policy, with the ultimate objective of creating system-wide change for all students. The guide can be used at all levels of education and is intended to facilitate discussions on the importance of inclusion and equity in education.
In conclusion, the right to inclusive education encompasses a transformation in culture, policy, and practice in all educational environments to accommodate differing requirements and expectations. This guide is intended to facilitate discussions and support countries in embedding inclusion and equity in educational policy, ultimately aiming to create system-wide change for all students.
