VARGUILLAS, Carmen; URQUIZO, Angélica; BRAVO, Patricia  y  MORENO, Paula. EXPERIENCES IN THE PROCESS OF EDUCATIONAL INCLUSION IN IBEROAMERICAN HIGHER EDUCATION. Revista Chakiñan [online]. 2021, n.15, pp.180-195. ISSN 2550-6722.  https://doi.org/10.37135/chk.002.15.12.

This article analyzes experiences of the educational inclusion process in Ibero-American university spaces considering the actions implemented to take care of students with disabilities in order to identify the advances made in these institutions. For this, 57 consultation sources have been analyzed. The emerging categories include the legal foundations to favor inclusion in Spain and Latin America, implications of curricular adaptations, accessibility to the physical environment and Information Technology to Communication (ICT), fundamental factors that contribute to admission, academic pursuit and graduation of university students with disabilities. It is concluded that, although there are achievements, the adequate response to the needs of students with disabilities is still not guaranteed because obstacles to their access and permanence persist. This situation demands a greater commitment from the universities to favor inclusion, in accordance with public policies and international agreements on this matter.

Palabras clave : Inclusive education; accessibility; academic accommodations; equal opportunities; higher education.
