April 27-29, 2023
Change is possible only when all those that are part of the context come together to make systems more inclusive
and conducive to social and emotional wellbeing.
Apni Shala and Ummeed come together once again to advocate for Social Emotional Learning (SEL) and Inclusion and to create a platform to bring all stakeholders in the world of social emotional learning and inclusion together. The SELebrating Inclusion Summit is envisioned to be an annual SEL and inclusion gathering of organizations, policy makers, schools, educational institutions, families, educators and any individuals working towards making the education system more inclusive, safe and focused on the wellbeing of those accessing it.
The third edition of the SELebrating Inclusion Summit (SIS 2023) will explore “Culture, Policy, and Practices to build Social Emotional Learning informed Inclusive Education”.
SIS 2023 hopes to build on the discussions from the previous summit which revolved around development of inclusive systems, discussion on SEL in public education systems, impact of being inclusive of diverse learners needs on access to SEL, mindsets, resources and support systems, implementing SEL curriculum, and making SEL and inclusion a reality at scale. Moreover, it intends to explore in-depth the intersection of inclusion and SEL and the possibilities that it creates.

- Delve deeper to explore the practices underpinning inclusion and SEL
