Summary/Abstract: Inclusive education is a fundamental human right to which each individuals, including children with disabilities, are entitled. It ensures that all children, regardless of their abilities, background, ethnicity, gender, origin, as well as disability learn together in the same classroom and school. For ensuring the right to education of children with disabilities in inclusive environment, the persistent biases should be understood and addressed. This entails elimination of discrimination that limits the acceptance of children with diverse backgrounds. The paper examines the perspective of international human rights standards, mainly the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, with regards to inclusive education and creating an educational environment opened to diversity. The author also presents the opinion of parents of children with disabilities, of teachers and experts in inclusive education with regards to acceptance of diversity in the school environment. This allowed the development of recommendations for improved acceptance of diversity in educational institutions in the Republic of Moldova.
