Emergency and people with intellectual disabilities. Teachers' training in the LEBEL proposal

The various contexts of life are marked by a high degree of unpredictability that, at times, can reach challenging levels capable of disorienting and destabilizing the routine of everyday life. Risk or emergency situations, such as natural disasters, traumatic events or particular health circumstances, raise a number of complex challenges for societies as a whole, but also specifically for those who experience a condition of vulnerability, such as people with disabilities. Within the framework of these considerations sits the international Erasmus + project “I learn and get beyond my limits” - LEBEL carried out by the Center for Studies and Research on Disability and Marginality of the Catholic University of the Sacred Heart (CeDisMa) in collaboration with four European countries (in addition to Italy, Turkey, Belgium, North Macedonia). The project aimed to produce teaching materials and train teachers and education professionals in emergency management for people with intellectual disabilities and autism spectrum disorders.
