What is inclusion?

Inclusion refers to a system of practices that seek to ensure that all individuals regardless of their abilities, background or circumstances are valued members of society and are provided with the necessary resources and opportunities to participate fully in all aspects of life. This means overcoming barriers and creating environments in which everyone feels welcomed, respected and supported – whether it be in school, the workplace, community or any other sphere of life. Inclusion promotes diversity, equity and social justice, and recognizes that every individual has their unique strengths and contributions to make. Ultimately, inclusion is about creating a more just and fair society that benefits everyone.
