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:	Disability-Inclusive Education Practices in Bangladesh - Bangladesh Protibondhi Foundation (BPF)
Author/developer:	UNICEF
Language:	English
Description of good practice:	Some private organizations operating inclusive schools are the Centre for the Rehabilitation of the Paralysed, Bangladesh Protibondhi Foundation (BPF) in Dhaka, and BRAC, which enrolled 28,144 children with disabilities. The Underprivileged Children’s Education Program runs IE programs for “ultra-poor” (Sightsavers, 2015, p. 21) children with disabilities in urban communities. The Bangladesh Protibondhi Foundation has a network of 13 urban and rural schools mainstreaming inclusive education. Children with mild disabilities learn alongside their non-disabled peers under the same national curriculum. An workshop was arranged on ‘Creating Barrier-Free Inclusive Communities and a Rights-Based Society for Children with Disability’ by the Bangladesh Protibondhi Foundation in 2004. The Bangladesh Protibondhi Foundation (BPF) provides services, endorsed by the Ministry of Social Welfare (MoSW), such as early intervention, education and rehabilitation services.
