The project seeks to gain new insights into the experience of students with disabilities studying at Australian universities. Universities conduct disability surveys from time to time, but these tend to be forgotten as time passes and priorities change. This project involved the co-design and development of a survey, using qualitative and quantitative questions, to investigate students’ experiences, including of barriers to education and participation in the Australian tertiary (or post-secondary) sector. This is planned to be the first of several research projects to transparently and accountably track issues faced by disabled tertiary students, and what is working to improve education outcomes and reduce discrimination. The survey has been piloted with UQ students with a view to roll it out to other universities. This paper focuses on the survey instrument and describes the project’s formation and development. It also identifies challenges that have arisen in the process and future directions.","PeriodicalId":42250,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Discrimination and the Law","volume":"23 1","pages":"80 - 102"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2023-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45494699","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As the CoDirectors of the Disability Rights Working Group, we are indebted to all the speakers and participants at the conference for their invaluable contributions. Article 24(1) of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) recognizes the right of persons with disabilities to education and states that this should be realized without discrimination, on the basis of equal opportunity, and inclusive at all levels (emphasis added). Article 24 sets out several fundamental dimensions to realizing the right to education, including at the post-secondary level. For example, Article 24(1) establishes many of the qualitative goals that persons with disabilities will be enabled to achieve through the right to education, such as the full development of human potential, a sense of dignity and selfworth, and a student’s creativity and talent. Article 24(4) addresses, in part, the need to train teachers, professionals and staff to support persons with disabilities in their educational journey at all levels of learning. Article 24(5) is specifically addressed to post-secondary level education:","PeriodicalId":42250,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Discrimination and the Law","volume":"23 1","pages":"4 - 6"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2023-04-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43674010","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the CRPD’s provisions on inclusive education have not been widely considered in relation to Irish third level education. This article outlines the findings from two research projects that examined the experiences of students with disabilities at one Irish university. It begins by considering the scope of inclusive education in the CRPD, addressing this through the prism of two cross-cutting rights, accessibility and reasonable accommodation. It outlines the Irish legislative context, identifying significant gaps between existing legal provisions and Ireland’s CRPD obligations. It then explores the practical realisation of inclusive education at the case study university. The article argues that accessibility in the CRPD is broader than both Irish legislative requirements and the general institutional understanding. Noting that students face significant difficulties accessing effective reasonable accommodations in practice, the paper contends that this may be partly attributable to the silo-ing of institutional knowledge and the lack of a ‘whole educational environment’ approach, as well as attitudinal barriers. These impediments prevent the full and equal participation of students with disabilities in tertiary education. The paper then draws on the CRPD to offer suggestions for enhancing inclusive practice.","PeriodicalId":42250,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Discrimination and the Law","volume":"23 1","pages":"103 - 125"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2023-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41748828","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Policies addressing socio-economic inequality include a focus on promoting skills development and employment for persons with disabilities. A predominant instrument for providing post-school training and work opportunities to disadvantaged youth, including persons with disabilities, is learnership programmes funded through the Sector Education and Training Authorities (SETAs). Despite enabling policies and investment in learnerships, persons with disabilities comprise only 1.3% of the workforce, while an estimated 15% of the population are disabled. This situation opens up the skills development strategy, and supporting legislation, for some critical review. Using Critical Disability Studies as a lens, this paper offers three critiques concerning the operation of learnerships for disability inclusion in South Africa; (1) neglecting to align skills development and market needs holds persons with disabilities in a cycle of training and poverty; (2) focusing exclusively on providing hard skills fails to account for complex challenges faced by persons with disabilities; and (3) viewing skills development and inclusive employment as a charitable endeavour fails to achieve social justice. This paper argues that the planning and implementation of learnerships should respond to current debates concerning holistic approaches to inclusive development.","PeriodicalId":42250,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Discrimination and the Law","volume":"23 1","pages":"163 - 180"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2023-03-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48610051","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yet Article 24 of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (‘CRPD’) enshrines the right to inclusive education and prohibits any discrimination on the basis of disability in the implementation of this right. These rights indubitably also apply in a setting of postsecondary education, as is made unequivocally clear by the Article’s requirement of an inclusive education system ‘at all levels’ and its paragraph 5. Equal access to higher education for persons with disabilities is crucial given its role as a portal to the enjoyment of other human rights. In our contribution we consider how one crucial aspect of this right is implemented, i.e. the right to reasonable accommodations. Based on university regulations and interviews with a number of people involved in the practical implementation of reasonable accommodations, we assess whether the law and practice at Flemish universities are in conformity with the CRPD standards. While we found that considerable attention is paid to the role of the environment and the context of individual students, we also identified a number of ‘disability pitfalls’ in the current Flemish practice that might also be present in other jurisdictions.","PeriodicalId":42250,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Discrimination and the Law","volume":"23 1","pages":"60 - 79"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2023-03-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45514665","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yet these same challenges provide a rare opportunity to empower the more than one billion people with disabilities globally through principles of compassion, respect, dignity and inclusion. We must build a new generation of strong leaders, professionals and advocates tapping the unlimited potential of people with disabilities. The key to unlocking this potential is realizing meaningful access to higher education for students with disabilities. This article examines opportunities and barriers for disabled students in American higher education, drawing on student and administrator interviews and case law to propose a framework based upon principles of access, inclusion, accountability and advocacy, so we may ensure educational opportunities for students with disabilities to allow them to take their rightful places alongside their non-disabled peers as leaders to secure a fully inclusive and equitable future for all.","PeriodicalId":42250,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Discrimination and the Law","volume":"23 1","pages":"126 - 143"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2023-03-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43592538","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
