PETI plays an important role in the EU framework for the implementation of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. Forming part of the 2017 PETI research programme, the upcoming workshop consisted of two panel sessions and the presentation of a new study on inclusive education. The first session focused on developments relating to the UNCRPD and the EU context, while the second session addressed legal and social protection for persons with disabilities.
