Zero Conference Award for Outstanding Policy and Practice in Inclusive Education for "Pacific Indicators for Disability Inclusive Education"- a project Funded by the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, Government of Australia

The Zero Project promotes the rights of persons with disabilities globally, according to the principles and Articles of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UN CRPD). It is a platform where the most innovative and effective solutions overcoming the barriers that persons with disabilities face, are being shared. Every year, the Zero Project concentrates on a theme: on independent living and political participation (2015), on accessibility (2014) and on employment (2013). In 2016 the project will concentrate on inclusive education and ICTs. As of today, more than 3,000 experts around the world have contributed to the initiative. The Zero Project was initiated by the Essl Foundation in 2010 and has been running in partnership with the World Future Council since 2011 and with the European Foundation Centre since 2013.
