What is ISEC 2000?

Every five years, the United Kingdom hosts a major international congress on special needs education.

The aim is to provide a forum for the exchange of ideas and experiences from around the world about progress towards the goals of Inclusive Education for all.

Themes will include:

• From rights to policy

The congress will take place on the Fallowfield campus of The University of Manchester. A wide range of accessible residential accommodation (most of it en suite) is available, at a reasonable price, for all who need it on the university campus.
