What is the relationship between School and Family of children with special needs today? Where are the activist parents in Greece and Cyprus, whose struggles have paved the way for the adoption of new legislation and the elimination of a new path? What has become of their own children? What prospects does today's parent and their disabled child have in the two countries?

The book you are holding aims to answer these questions. It is based on collaboration with some of the most well-known names in the field of special and inclusive education in Greece and Cyprus, drawing from recent research and years of experience working with children with special needs, their schools, and their parents. The hope of bringing parents and educators together at a common "table" of ongoing dialogue to make mutual efforts to adequately meet the needs of children with difficulties or disabilities made this book possible.
