Sammendrag
The right to education is a human right, and it is also covered in the Convention on the
Rights of the Child, the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities and in the
Sustainable Development Goals. Despite this, many children in low‐and‐middle‐income
countries face problems accessing education, and children with disabilities are particularly
vulnerable to exclusion. Building on relevant policy and research, the objective of this
study was to carry out an in‐depth exploration of barriers and facilitators for access to
education and scholastic achievement for children and young people with disabilities in a
rural Malawian context. This report presents a summary of key results from the project.
