On 4 December 2013, UNESCO and Kuwait signed an
agreement relating to the establishment of a Center of excellence for
persons with disabilities in Kuwait. The project is one of several
initiatives foreseen under a broader Framework Agreement with Kuwait signed on 20 November 2013.
The project seeks to build institutional and
technical capacity at national level in delivering inclusive education
for persons with disabilities, and will ultimately contribute to the
attainment of the Education for All (EFA) goals and the Millennium
Development Goals (MDGs). These objectives will be met through the
establishment of a Centre of Excellence concerned with assuring high
quality education for persons with disabilities; building partnerships
and strengthening the international knowledge base on inclusive
education for persons with disabilities. Under the agreement technical
support will also be provided at national level for data collection and
analysis of the educational contexts of persons with disabilities.
