Study Abroad/Erasmus Checklist for Students with Disabilities
The purpose of this appendix is to provide an example of a Study Abroad/Erasmus Checklist for Students with Disabilities seeking to study abroad. This sample is provided by DAWN. This checklist is used to assist students with disabilities partaking in an Erasmus study abroad programme in ensuring that they have fully thought through every aspect of their study abroad and that they are fully prepared.
Please note that if using this as a template for your own institution, you should reference 'Inclusive Learning and the Provision of Reasonable Accommodations to Students with Disabilities in Higher Education in Ireland' as the source:

About the Road Map for Inclusion
'Inclusive Learning and the Provision of Reasonable Accommodations to Students with Disabilities in Higher Education in Ireland' is part of a series of outputs produced by the Association for Higher Education Access and Disability (AHEAD), in collaboration with the Disability Advisers Working Network (DAWN). It brings together two years of research on the inclusion of students with disabilities in higher education and concludes that an inclusive approach based on Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principles would provide an effective framework to include and improve the retention of, not only students with disabilities, but a diverse range of students including migrants, mature students, international students, and students from different socio-economic backgrounds.
The values underpinning the Road Map series are explained in the following video:
