Third-level institutions are to get €3 million this year to help make campuses and practices more inclusive, the Government has announced.
Minister for Further and Higher Education Simon Harris revealed it as one of two initiatives to support students with autism and those with an intellectual disability in accessing third-level education.
The first initiative will distribute one-off funding worth €3 million among publicly funded colleges and universities from September to implement inclusive designs on their campuses and create opportunities for students with intellectual disabilities.
