搁茅蝉耻尘茅
(En anglais seulement) Our first seminar investigates the institution of education as a built environment. The right to an education is enshrined in article 24 of the CRPD. The effective implementation of the Convention, however, requires translation to a domestic context. This seminar will explore whether and how the CRPD may be implemented in a meaningful way for rights-holders. Investigating the global and the local, it will bring together South African and Canadian perspectives on inclusive education to explore both challenges and best practices, as well as revealing the drawbacks of rhetorical posturing. Professeur Fr茅d茅ric M茅gret will be our moderator.
L'茅v茅nement prendra la forme d'un s茅minaire et les lectures requises seront distribu茅es 脿 l'avance. Veuillez confirmer votre participation 脿 chrlp.law [at] mcgill.ca avant le 17 septembre. Un l茅ger d茅jeuner sera servi.
