ORTIZ-GONZALEZ, María del Carmen. Towards an inclusive education. Special education yesterday, today and tomorrow. Siglo Cero [online]. 2023, vol.54, n.1, pp.11-24.  Epub Oct 16, 2023. ISSN 2530-0350.  https://dx.doi.org/10.14201/scero202354125096.

In the beginning of the new millennium, it is possible to look back on the situation of special education, in order to close some doors and open some windows to help renew the air that we are going to breath in the areas of theory and practice in the diversity field. Therefore, this paper is a review at a terminology and conceptual level in order to focus on future perspectives of the philosophy of educational inclusion and good practices in a school for all. We advance the idea of promoting a rich environment while maintaining the differences of a diverse world, and of improving personal and multicultural capabilities in order to grow in a world without physical, moral, or social barriers. If we have positive attitudes toward persons with disabilities, and if we develop the required strategies to answer possible needs, it will be possible to host everyone who comes, welcome them, and offer them the required supports to help them find –together with their significant ones– the pathway for their lives.

Keywords : Educational inclusion; school for all; diversity; disability.
