项目摘要

There is an established link between conflict and protracted instability, and poor development outcomes (World Bank, 2011) . For many Low and Middle Income Countries (LMICs) the presence, and legacy, of violence within their own borders or in neighbouring states hinders existing efforts to enhance development, while also placing additional burdens upon the state. The consequences of conflict and crisis echo throughout society, but the challenge it poses for education provision for those with disabilities is particularly acute. Instability erodes existing capacity, whilst simultaneously increasing demand, as the proportion of the population with a disability, either as a result of physical or psychological trauma, rises. Research commissioned by UNICEF indicates that over 85% of children with disabilities have never attended school (Mizanoya et al. 2016), yet despite this, the link between conflict, disability and access to education is under-examined.The 'Disability Under Siege' Network Plus, has the overarching objective of providing the intellectual, financial and logistical resources required by local practitioners to deliver a transformational step change in education provision for children with disabilities in conflict affected states. By achieving this, the project will challenge the status quo that currently results in the majority of children with disabilities in conflict affected LMICs never attending school, and will significantly improve education provision for those that do receive education.In order to maximize the impact of this Network Plus the project will focus on one specific region: The Middle East, and specifically the countries of Lebanon, Jordan and Palestine (West Bank and Gaza Strip). This region has been chosen as the following factors make it an excellent location to deliver improved outcomes for those with disabilities: i) there is significant under-reporting of disability, in part due to societal stigma, and in part due to dominant narrow medical models of disability; ii) there are high rates of conflict-related disability in all three locations, with refugee flows from the wider region (Syria and Iraq) creating an additional burden; iii) the locations have a large youth population; iv) 95% of children with disabilities are excluded from primary school (HRW, 2016); v) There is an effective, but under resourced, network of local partners who are able to effectively engage with the opportunities offered by the Network plus. In order to truly understand and make progress against this challenge, a cross disciplinary approach is necessary. How disability is understood in the various domains of health sciences, law, religion and culture underpins education policy and practice as well as the prioritisation and allocation of resources. Furthermore, the role of arts and humanities have a significant potential for shaping public knowledge on disability, for example, the 1970s Disability Arts movement in the UK, contributed substantively to the culmination of 1995 Disability Discrimination Act. Consequently, the project team comprises of researchers from a range of disciplines, based in both the Global North and Global South, all with a shared commitment to transforming education provision for some of the most vulnerable populations in fragile and conflict affected states.

冲突和长期不稳定以及不良发展成果之间存在着明确的联系（世界银行，2011）。对于许多低收入和中等收入国家 (LMIC) 来说，其境内或邻国暴力的存在及其遗留问题阻碍了现有的促进发展的努力，同时也给国家带来了额外的负担。冲突和危机的后果在整个社会回响，但它对为残疾人提供教育带来的挑战尤其严峻。不稳定状况削弱了现有能力，同时随着由于身体或心理创伤而导致残疾的人口比例上升，需求也随之增加。联合国儿童基金会委托进行的研究表明，超过 85% 的残疾儿童从未上过学（Mizanoya 等，2016），但尽管如此，冲突、残疾和受教育机会之间的联系仍未得到充分审查。“围困下的残疾”网络+的总体目标是提供当地从业者所需的智力、财政和后勤资源，以实现为受冲突影响的残疾儿童提供教育服务方面的变革性步骤州。通过实现这一目标，该项目将挑战目前受冲突影响的中低收入国家大多数残疾儿童从未上学的现状，并将显着改善那些接受教育的儿童的教育条件。为了最大限度地发挥这一网络加的影响，该项目将重点关注一个特定地区：中东，特别是黎巴嫩、约旦和巴勒斯坦国家（约旦河西岸和加沙地带）。之所以选择该地区，是因为以下因素使其成为为残疾人提供改善结果的绝佳地点： i) 残疾情况严重漏报，部分原因是社会耻辱，部分原因是占主导地位的狭隘残疾医学模式； ii) 所有三个地点的冲突相关残疾率都很高，来自更广泛地区（叙利亚和伊拉克）的难民潮造成了额外的负担； iii) 这些地点有大量年轻人口； iv) 95% 的残疾儿童被排除在小学之外（人权观察，2016 年）； v) 有一个有效但资源不足的本地合作伙伴网络，能够有效地利用 Network plus 提供的机会。为了真正理解这一挑战并取得进展，需要采取跨学科的方法。在健康科学、法律、宗教和文化等各个领域如何理解残疾问题是教育政策和实践以及资源的优先顺序和分配的基础。此外，艺术和人文学科在塑造公众对残疾问题的认识方面具有巨大潜力，例如，1970 年代英国的残疾艺术运动为 1995 年残疾歧视法案的达成做出了重大贡献。因此，该项目团队由来自北半球和南半球多个学科的研究人员组成，他们共同致力于改变脆弱国家和受冲突影响国家的一些最弱势群体的教育提供方式。
