The workshop on Neurodiverse Youth Inclusion and Special Educational Needs focused on raising awareness about neurodiversities such as ADHD, Autism, and Dyslexia while promoting effective strategies for societal inclusion. Participants, including educators, youth workers, and volunteers, explored methods to create supportive learning environments, tailor educational approaches, and dismantle societal barriers.
Through interactive discussions and expert insights, the workshop emphasized the importance of recognizing individual strengths, fostering acceptance, and ensuring equal opportunities for neurodiverse youth to thrive both in education and beyond. Participants developed competencies such as empathy, active listening, and adaptability, and gained a deeper understanding of flexible communication and inclusive teaching strategies.
The workshop highlighted the critical role of non-formal education in enhancing accessibility and support for youth with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), empowering them through personalized learning experiences, peer learning, and community projects.
