Dyscalculia: News from the web:

In Europe the European commission has received a request to do something about learning disabilities in Europe.

This is a European Citizens’ Initiative (ECI) entitled ‘Focus on Specific Learning Disabilities on EU Level’.

The initiative aims to facilitate the access to education of people with specific learning disabilities (i.e. dyslexia, dyscalculia, dysgraphia). The organisers are particularly concerned about varying definitions of learning disabilities, distinct methods of detection and assistance for people with specific learning disabilities offered in the Member States. They call on the Commission to present a proposal for common guidelines on how to detect and address learning disabilities, to ensure a better integration of people with such disabilities within the educational system, also when exercising their right to free movement. The initiative also invites the Commission to significantly contribute to the research on specific learning disabilities.

The European Commission only has to do anything with it if a million people from seven European countries sign the request within the next year.
