En esta obra se presenta un marco pedagógico que pretende dar respuesta a la necesidad de formación de los profesionales que se dedican a la inclusión social, laboral y educativa de las personas con discapacidad a través del arte. Bajo el paraguas del proyecto Erasmus+ Delyramus II, llevado a cabo por la Universidad Rey Juan Carlos, la Fundación Rey Ardid, la Escuela de Violería, la Fondazione di comunitá del Centro Storico di Napoli y la fundación ADM Estrela, se hace un repaso, en primer lugar, de los conceptos fundamentales que permiten entender la inclusión social y laboral de las personas con discapacidad en la actualidad. Seguidamente, se abordan las posibilidades que ofrece el patrimonio cultural como vía para el fomento de la empleabilidad de las personas con discapacidad. Esta base sirve de marco al lector para adentrarse en los contenidos necesarios para implementar una formación inclusiva, bajo el prisma de la igualdad de oportunidades y promoviendo la presencia, participación y consecución de logros. Para ello, se profundiza en uno de los enfoques para alcanzar dichos fines, el diseño universal aplicado al ámbito educativo y, en concreto, el diseño universal para el aprendizaje. El libro desemboca en la creación de una herramienta, la Guía para la autoevaluación de estrategias docentes inclusivas, cuyo fin es favorecer la mejora continua del ejercicio docente en el día a día, avanzando, así, hacia prácticas más inclusivas. Este monográfico, aunque va destinado a todos aquellos docentes interesados en eliminar las diferentes barreras en el aprendizaje, se muestra de especial relevancia para cualquier profesional que vea en el patrimonio cultural un medio y un fin para la inclusión social y laboral de las personas con discapacidad.

The last two decades have seen concerns for equality, diversity, social justice and human rights move from the margins of museum thinking and practice, to the core. The arguments – both moral and pragmatic – for engaging diverse audiences, creating the conditions for more equitable access to museum resources, and opening up opportunities for participation, now enjoy considerable consensus in many parts of the world. A growing number of institutions are concerned to construct new narratives that represent a plurality of lived experiences, histories and identities which aim to nurture support for more progressive, ethically-informed ways of seeing and to actively inform contemporary public debates on often contested rights-related issues. At the same time it would be misleading to suggest an even and uncontested transition from the museum as an organisation that has been widely understood to marginalise, exclude and oppress to one which is wholly inclusive. Moreover, there are signs that momentum towards making museums more inclusive and equitable is slowing down or, in some contexts, reversing. Museums, Equality and Social Justice aims to reflect on and, crucially, to inform debates in museum research, policy and practice at this critical time. It brings together new research from academics and practitioners and insights from artists, activists, and commentators to explore the ways in which museums, galleries and heritage organisations are engaging with the fast-changing equalities terrain and the shifting politics of identity at global, national and local levels and to investigate their potential to contribute to more equitable, fair and just societies.

Over the past few years, scientists and philosophers have discussed the concept of gesture as promising to overcome hyper-intellectualist conceptions of human beings. Its ascendancy reaffirmed the importance of the pragmatic, relational dimension in human experience and cognitive processes. Many questions arise when we focus on the cognitive role of gestures, especially in the new cultural landscape shaped by the digital revolution. Does the idea of gestures highlight the preeminence of bodily experiences? Does it lead to the thinning of the distinction between humans and nonhuman animals? Do gestures help us rethink the allegedly higher human capacities in an antireductionist vein? Do gestures involve reasoning? Are they purely external actions? Do they serve to communicate, or is all communication a form of gesture? What kinds of social relations are involved in the concept of gesture? According to a multidisciplinary orientation, the book inquiries into the possibilities and issues opened up by attending to a philosophy of gestures in philosophy, sociology, psychology, anthropology, and communication studies. Given the current centrality of gestures, the general aim of the book is to reconsider the meaning of "gestures" and try to answer old and new questions.

This edited book brings together best examples and practices of digital and interactive approaches and platforms from a number of projects based in European countries to foster social inclusion and participation in heritage and culture. It engages with ongoing debates on the role of culture and heritage in contemporary society relating to inclusion and exclusion, openness, access, and bottom-up participation. The contributions address key themes such as the engagement of marginalised communities, the opening of debates and new interpretations around socially and historically contested heritages, and the way in which digital technologies may foster more inclusive cultural heritage practices. They will also showcase examples of work that can inspire reflection, further research, and also practice for readers such as practice-focused researchers in both HCI and design. Indeed, as well as consolidating the achievements of researchers, the contributions also represent concrete approaches to digital heritage innovation for social inclusion purposes. The book’s primary audience is academics, researchers, and students in the fields of cultural heritage, digital heritage, human-computer interaction, digital humanities, and digital media, as well as practitioners in the cultural sector.

Despite advancements in technological and engineering fields, there is still a digital gender divide in the adoption, use, and development of information communication technology (ICT) services. This divide is also evident in educational environments and careers, specifically in the STEM fields. In order to mitigate this divide, policy approaches must be addressed and improved in order to encourage the inclusion of women in ICT disciplines. Gender Gaps and the Social Inclusion Movement in ICT provides emerging research exploring the theoretical and practical aspects of gender and policy from developed and developing country perspectives and its applications within ICT through various forms of research including case studies. Featuring coverage on a broad range of topics such as digital identity, human rights, and social inclusion, this book is ideally designed for policymakers, academicians, researchers, students, and technology developers seeking current research on gender inequality in ICT environments.
