For every child, the right to education!
UNICEF, in collaboration with Government of Uzbekistan, is advancing the national agenda for inclusive education to ensure that every child — regardless of ability, gender, geography, ethnicity, or socio-economic background — has equitable access to quality learning opportunities within the framework of SmartED project jointly financed by the Islamic Development Bank and Global Partnership for Education.
In this context, UNICEF is supporting Government of Uzbekistan to build larger pool of national specialists with solid knowledge and positive hands-on experience in inclusive schools and classrooms development. The process involves modelling inclusive education in ten pilot schools and preschools, where new programmes, tools and processes, pre/school inclusion teams, and support processes will be tested and refined to inform national capacity building programs, teachers and other professional qualification requirements and system-wide principles, standards, and mechanisms to strengthen inclusion across all schools.
Schools and preschools selected across regions, serving as resource centers and testing grounds
