• Abstract:

  Inclusive education focuses on creating learning environments where all students, regardless of their abilities, backgrounds or needs, can fully develop. This approach promotes diversity and equity in the classroom, recognizing that each student has a unique set of strengths and challenges. Equity in inclusive education is not about providing the same resources to everyone, but about ensuring that each student receives what he or she needs to reach his or her full potential. This requires a commitment from teachers and institutions to train and implement innovative pedagogical strategies, such as cooperative learning, differentiated instruction and the use of assistive technologies. The goal is to create a school culture that not only tolerates but celebrates diversity, promoting a sense of belonging and respect among students. The methodology is a qualitative approach, with a descriptive design, reviewing in the literature about this article. In conclusion, fostering diversity and equity in the classroom not only benefits students with specific needs, but enriches the learning of the whole group. It promotes a culture of respect and acceptance, preparing students to be empathetic and responsible citizens. Inclusive education is a step towards creating more just and equitable societies.
