Abstract: The SDG 4 Working Group at Springer Nature is delighted to host a panel discussion featuring contributors to
Inclusive and Equitable Education for All, edited by Richard Ingram and published by Palgrave Macmillan. Bringing together voices from academia, the charity sector, training providers, teachers, grassroots organisations and disability rights advocacy groups worldwide, the speakers will discuss their chapters and the real-world impact of their work in advancing SDG 4 through inclusive education.
Bridging research and practice, the panel will situate key educational challenges within the broader agenda of sustainable development. It will show that inclusive and equitable education is not only an ethical imperative, but also a practical approach to improving outcomes for all learners, fostering more inclusive societies and addressing global challenges.
