Learn about AUCD's new ADA International Fellowship Program, a new professional exchange initiative that promotes inclusive education. 20 competitively selected Fellows from Kenya, Tanzania, Brazil and Peru will study U.S. disability policy and best practices for inclusive education in the U.S. for a four-week period in 2017 (preferably at an AUCD member Center or Program). Host site members will also have an opportunity to travel overseas to help a Fellow implement an inclusive education project in his/her home country. Join this webinar to learn more about the program, how to apply to be a host, and how to engage your international partners in Kenya, Tanzania, Brazil, and Peru in recruiting Fellows!
