Abstract

To foster strong global movements toward more inclusive educational resources around the world, higher education serves a crucial role. Universities face numerous challenges in the development of inclusive services for those with differing needs. While global collaborative efforts often provide great inspiration for community and educational system change, professionals do not always know exactly what changes should be made or how to go about making these changes more inclusive. Resources and online professional learning networks that are open to all and readily available online are one way to address these challenges. The INCLUDE Collaboratory gathers and provides open opportunities for professionals around the world to connect, learn, discuss, and develop ongoing collaborative relationships. The authors present the background, history, structure, and work of the INCLUDE Collaboratory, highlighting the following: Concept, vision, and purpose; organizational timeline and evolution; organizational development; thematic priorities, and future planning.
