Yesterday we facilitated a session on inclusive education for the United World Schools (UWS) Nepal team.

Over two and a half hours, we worked through the foundations of inclusive education in Nepal, practical ways to identify and support learners in remote classrooms, and why safeguarding sits at the heart of inclusion.

UWS works in some of Nepal's most remote communities all across Nepal, where children with disabilities are most likely to be missed. The session showed us, and the team, how safe and inclusive approaches can strengthen the work UWS is already doing, from classrooms to community engagement.

Thank you to the UWS Nepal team for the openness and energy in the room and all those who joined online. We look forward to what we will build together.

Today, IEN signed a Letter of Understanding with the Kathmandu University School of Education (KUSOED).

This partnership brings together two institutions with a shared belief: that every child in Nepal deserves a teacher who is truly prepared to include them.

Through this collaboration, we will co-design courses on inclusive pedagogy and Universal Design for Learning, conduct joint research, and co-host the annual Transformative Inclusive Education Conference.

Grateful to the Dean Prof. Bal Chandra Luitel and the KUSOED team for taking this step with us. The work of building an inclusive education system in Nepal just got a little stronger.

Individualized Education Plans (IEPs)
———————————————
Last week, we had the privilege of facilitating a workshop on Making IEPs That Work with around 30 teachers from Ullens School Kathmandu.

It is always a joy to see schools invest in their teachers this way. When educators are equipped with the right tools and knowledge, children with educational needs and disabilities get the learning environments they truly deserve.

Inclusive education is not about where children sit. It is about whether teaching and learning are designed to reach them. IEN is hosting the International Conference on Transformative Inclusive Education (December 1–2, 2026, Kathmandu) to build the evidence, the frameworks, and the networks that make transformation possible.

We welcome your submissions.

Inclusive Education Nepal invites scholars, researchers, practitioners, educators, and policymakers to submit papers for the International Conference on Transformative Inclusive Education, to be held in Kathmandu, Nepal, on December 1 and 2, 2026.

Safeguarding and Child Protection Training for School Leaders.....................................................🌿

Today, Inclusive Education Nepal had the privilege of bringing together 27 school leaders and teachers of GEMS School for our Safeguarding and Child Protection Training for School Leaders.

Through the day, participants learned what Nepal's law actually requires of school leaders. They worked through realistic scenarios drawn from our own vulnerability mapping. They discussed the hardest questions: what to do when the person accused of harm is a trusted, long-serving colleague; what to do when the management committee asks you to keep things quiet.

Every participant left with a draft safeguarding action plan for their school and a commitment they spoke aloud in front of their peers.

Thank you to GEMS School, Lalitpur, for welcoming us, and to each leader who gave their full day to this work. 🙏
