On 19 November, Inclusion Europe will organise an important Policy Seminar at the European Parliament, concentrating on Article 19 of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities.
The World Congress of Inclusion International provides a unique social platform for people with intellectual disabilities, their families, service providers and decision-makers to exchange knowledge and experience on disability issues and to pave the way for improving the daily lives of people with intellectual disabilities.
The registration for our annual âEurope in Actionâ conference is now open. The event will take place on 15-17 May 2014 in Belfast in Northern Ireland under the theme âGrowing up with an intellectual disabilityâ and it is organised in cooperation with Mencap.
Betreuungsgesetz of 1992 â the German Example for a Guardianship-Legislation on Legal Capacity and Decision Making
From September 2015 to November 2015, Inclusion Europe UK member Mencap surveyed over 300 persons with intellectual disabilities between 18 and 35 year old in order to understand the current state of social inclusion. The results were shocking.
Seven years ago the Spread the Word to End the Word campaign was launched in attempt to stop the derogatory usage of the word âretard(ed)â. The campaign encourages people to challenge the way others talk, think and write about intellectual and developmental disabilities.
In 2018, Inclusion Europe turned 30 years old! We used this year to celebrate the successes of 30 years of inclusion.
Many people with intellectual disabilities are discriminated.
This sometimes means they cannot go to school, or get a job.
