Subject(s): Summary: "Professor Elizabeth Aguiling-Pangalangan, Mr. Joel Mark Barredo, and Mr. Abhay Luthra present in this book entitled "Children with Disabilities: Towards the Realization of their Right to Education" published by the UP Law Center Institute of Human Rights. As advocates of and for children's rights, the authors conduct a rigorous examination and analysis of one of our society. This work articulates and explains, in a way that is comprehensible to whoever chooses to receive it, the international, regional, and domestic standards of what it means to respect, protect, and promote the most basic right to education. It is in this backdrop that the work assesses whether such right, as developed by United Nations Special Rapporteur Katarina Tomasevski, is accessible, available, adaptable, and acceptable to those who most need it - children with disabilities. Aside from its significance in applying international standards to various domestic contexts, this work is made more relevant by its provision of a regional dimension in its analysis of the right to inclusive education as it tackles the situation in three key players and members of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), namely, Myanmar (Burma), The Philippines, and Thailand." --From Foreword
