Promotion of Inclusive Education at IIT Kanpur
As a dedicated faculty member in CDAP (Cell for Differently Abled Persons) at IIT Kanpur since its establishment in 2017, I have been actively involved in advancing inclusive education. My efforts aim to create an accessible academic environment for students facing various challenges. I introduced a comprehensive accommodation form outlining specific requirements to address the educational and residential needs of students with challenges. Notable initiatives include the installation of assistive software tailored for visually challenged students across campus. I have organized impactful events during orientation to welcome challenged students and conducted sensitization sessions to foster understanding among the broader student community. Additionally, I have engaged in informative and interactive sessions for the families of students with challenges, creating a supportive ecosystem for their academic journey.
