What happened in Action Week 2008?
Finnish teachers’ union, Opetusalan Ammattijärjestö (OAJ) published a special ‘Education for All’ supplement in their union magazine, Opettaja.

The magazine has a readership of 180,000 and was also sent to Finnish decision-makers. A documentary film entitled ‘A World for inclusion – ensuring Education for All’ was launched. The focus in Finland was the Right to Education for Persons with Disabilities.

Under this umbrella two seminars were organised in coordination with the UNESCO Flagship Programme which works for the inclusion of children with disabilities in education.

What happened in Action Week 2007?


A brochure was produced on the problems that hinder the implementation of Education for All across the world, and distributed to policy makers and schools.
