Dr. Sandra Racionero participated in the International Conference on Equal Opportunities in Access to Quality Education, which was held in Istanbul, Turkey, from Wednesday to Friday, 14-16 November 2012.
Dr. Racionero was invited as a European expert on
measures to overcome inequalities through education. To that end, she gave a
presentation that outlined the successful educational approaches identified
through INCLUD-ED, an integrated project within the Sixth Framework Programme
of the European Commission. She described these approaches as tools to achieve
equality of outcomes in a range of contexts.
The conference was organized by Darü??afaka, a
Turkish education association, with collaboration from the Turkish Ministry of
Education and the European Training Foundation.
As a result of the presentation given by Dr.
Racionero, CREA, the research centre that coordinates the INCLUD-ED project,
will conduct a two-day workshop with representatives from the Turkish Ministry
of Education to examine the possibility of expanding successful educational initiatives
throughout the country.
