"Mapping the Grammar of Exclusion in the Context of Inclusion and Physical Education."

International research shows that students with disabilities face multiple barriers in inclusive physical education. From the students’ own perspective, inclusive experiences are often inaccessible to them. Using the example of physical education for blind students, this lecture examines in detail which barriers are identified, what structural challenges are associated with inclusive physical education, and why.
