Our Journey
Since 2024, RISE has been developing a practical professional development programme in Special Needs Education together with Rwandan partners. Each course builds on the experience of the previous one. Individual workshops are gradually evolving into a sustainable training programme that enables teachers to better support children with special educational needs and is intended to become an integral part of teacher education in the long term. Special Needs Education. Jeder Kurs baut auf den Erfahrungen des vorherigen auf. Aus einzelnen Workshops entsteht ein nachhaltiges Ausbildungsprogramm, das Lehrpersonen befähigt, Kinder mit besonderen Bildungsbedürfnissen besser zu fördern und langfristig in der Lehrerbildung verankert werden soll.
