Call for examples of inclusive practice iPEPAS is a resource that is currently in development at the UNESCO Chair. iPEPAS aims to bridge the policy-practice gap by increasing the capacity of physical educators, physical activity and sport(PEPAS) practitioners to inclusivize their practice. We would like to gather and include examples of good practice from various contexts around the world with view to inspiring others to inclusivize their practice. Contexts may span the lifecycle and can include but are not limited to: • sport for development • community development/volunteers/humanitarian • post conflict • emergency contexts If you already inclusivize your PEPAS practice we would love to hear from you.
