In Cambodia, students with disabilities remain marginalized and excluded from regular education settings, leading to low attendance and primary education completion rates. These challenges highlight critical concerns about teachers' inclusive practices. This study utilized the Theory of Planned Behavior to explore how teachers' attitudes…

Tactile cartography and the use of tactile teaching resources play a fundamental role in building the geographical reasoning of blind and low-vision students. These resources provide a sensory representation of space, allowing students to explore and understand geographical elements through touch. In this context, this study addresses the…

In Canada, known in Anishinaabe as Turtle Island, diversity and inclusion initiatives in higher education increasingly recognize power relations surrounding disability/access as a core component of diversity agendas and the policies and pedagogies that seek to enact them.
