Developing disability-inclusive EMIS

Inclusive education systems require planning tools that can count every learner—including children with disabilities – and turn evidence into better decisions. Yet in many contexts, disability data is unavailable, incomplete, or difficult to compare, and Education Management Information Systems (EMIS) do not always provide the information needed to plan, budget, and monitor disability-inclusive education policies and programmes effectively. This webinar will review the principles and good practices for developing an EMIS that supports disability-inclusive education, including how to better identify children with disabilities and their support needs, and how to capture information on the accessibility and inclusivity of the school environment. It will also outline the first steps of a roadmap of options that can be adopted in the short, medium, and long run, depending on the local context. Drawing on the experiences of The Gambia, South Africa, and Armenia, the discussion will highlight recent advancements in disability-inclusive EMIS design and implementation, including how disability data is used for decision-making and how EMIS can connect with other systems such as social protection. The webinar will mark the official launch of the Community of Practice on Disability-Inclusive Education Sector Planning (CoP-DIESP): https://network.iiep.unesco.org/en/co... – a global platform for knowledge exchange, peer-learning, and collaboration, facilitated by IIEP-UNESCO in Africa. The CoP is being launched as part of the regional programme Planning for Inclusive Education, launched in 2024 and funded by the Italian Agency for Development Cooperation (AICS).
