What if education gaps by disability are being measured incorrectly? Comparisons often mix all ages, but many people acquire disabilities after finishing school, and older generations had less access to education. Comparing everyone together distorts today’s picture of inclusion.
This webinar explores how South Sudan transformed the collection of data on students with disabilities through its Education Management Information System (EMIS), moving from manual records to digital tools and incorporating the Washington Group Questions. This shift significantly improved data accuracy, increasing the number of identified students with disabilities from 6,000 to over 41,000, and helping reshape national education policy to be more inclusive.
