As part of the project, all partners collected good practices. In order to cover the whole field, the work focused on three target groups / three levels.

The collection of good practices and the analysis of data allowed us to look at existing experiences in different countries in relation to all target groups and at all levels, but with a particular focus on the international level.

A total of 333 good practices were collected and evaluated during the project. Most of them in English (278), but a significant number are also in Bulgarian (32) and Turkish (19).

Although some of the good practices are not in English, all of the descriptions are, and can be translated and adapted as needed (at the request of Asian partners).

Title of practice:	"Implementing Inclusive Teaching and Learning in UK Higher Education – Utilising Universal Design for Learning (UDL) as a Route to Excellence"
Author/developer:	Professor Nicola Martin, Dr Michael Wray, Dr Abi James, E.A. Draffan, Joanna Krupa, Paddy Turner.
Language:	English
Description of good practice:	"This research begins to illuminate a national picture of Universal Design for learning (UDL) in UK higher education (HE), identify good practice and make recommendations useful to the HE sector. UDL is an approach based on planning for a diverse university community, rather than being surprised by diversity and attempting to retrofit adjustments for people who do not conform to the mythical norm stereotype. The researchers have extensive experience of working with disabled students and share a commitment to developing inclusive HE based on UDL principles"
