Introduction

Since the regularization of the "On-site Pre-school Rehabilitation Services" in October 2018, Heep Hong Society continued to make effort to promote and expand the services. By September 2023, the "Tier 1 Support Services" were also regularized. With the participation of schools, centers, children, and their caregivers, we are able to provide more comprehensive and diversified support services through a whole-school approach; promoting inclusive education and culture.

Through this seminar, we aim to share experiences and insights on implementing inclusive education in mainstream educational environments across different regions. This will facilitate the exchange of intervention approaches and deepen the field's understanding of inclusive education,  promoting its development. The seminar in the morning will feature three thematic presentations, followed by 4 parallel workshops in the afternoon.
