The Chair is pleased to invite you to the conference of Charles Gardou, anthropologist and university professor:

Make inclusion or be inclusive? Meaning and challenges of the inclusive movement

This conference questions the meaning and challenges of the inclusive movement, which concerns any sector of the social ecosystem: from early childhood structures to those of old age. What is it to be inclusive? Are “making inclusion” and “being inclusive” synonymous? What paths should be taken to act on our culture and make our society a “home for all”, without privileges and with the same right for everyone to have their rights?

If we anticipate the high-level issues, of a human, economic, social or political nature, covered by the inclusive perspective, do we clearly measure the extent of the challenge – less structural than cultural – to be taken up collectively? How does disability, as an individual event with collective resonance, reveal the systemic fragility of a society, its folds or folds, its contradictions or gray areas and the challenges it faces?

This conference will endeavor to show that, because it concerns the human community as a whole, the inclusive movement is in itself a political act, in the noblest sense of the term.
