CHANGE POLICIES
The foundation’s president Sheikh Manssour Bin Mussalam challenged governments to change the existing education policies and increase budgetary allocations to make education more inclusive and accessible to all children.

Mr Mussallama said the world should aspire for future which embraces inclusivity in education and in curriculum reforms.
He said policies in education do not exist in vain and that countries should continuously work on improving the curriculum content and infrastructure, training teachers and ensuring textbooks are available in schools.
TRUE EQUALITY
"We must articulate a common language and define our understanding of true equality and inclusive. We must developed clear strategies to ensure the whole system embraces inclusivity," he said
Djibouti President Ismail Omar Guelleh said the country has embraced inclusive education policy models.
Ugandan Prime Minister Ruhakana Rugunda said the country is committed to inclusive education that responds to children's rights.
"The focus on inclusion should be on the character of each child. Uganda has made sure no child is left behind," he said.
Others present at the meeting included the deputy prime minister of Somalia and the prime ministers of Niger and Togo.
