Inclusive Quality Education for All

Virtual Event: Friday, 8 April 2022, 10:00 – 11:15 a.m. EST

Over the past decade, major progress has been made towards increasing access to education generally, as well as for persons with autism specifically.

However, in 2020, as the COVID-19 pandemic spread across the globe, a majority of countries announced the temporary closure of schools, impacting more than 90 percent of students worldwide. The disruption in learning caused by the pandemic has reversed years of progress and has exacerbated inequalities in education.

Many students with autism have been especially hard hit and studies show that they have been disproportionately affected by disruptions to routines, as well as services and supports that they rely on.

April 2 was World Autism Day and United Nations is organizing a virtual event on Inclusive Quality Education for All.
