The University of Nicosia Department of Education and the University of Nevada, Las Vegas Department of Early Childhood, Multilingual, and Special Education are pleased to announce the Building Bridges V(irtual) International Conference, "Best Practices for the Inclusive Education of Diverse Students during Challenging Times", on June 1 - June 3, 2022. The Building Bridges convenings have always aimed at bringing together the international community to discuss innovative solutions to complex social and educational issues our students with disabilities and their families continuously face. The ongoing worldwide pandemic has made us even more cognizant of the importance of collective work and, thus, we are excited to continue the Building Bridges long tradition by introducing the fifth international conference taking place virtually. Our hope is that we create a stimulating space for focused, passionate advocates to come together and discuss new ways of ensuring the realization of our students’ highest potential.

Conference sessions will feature international scholars and practitioners, whose work focuses on ensuring access, inclusion, and equity for all diverse students with disabilities. All sessions will occur synchronously via Zoom.
