We’ve dreamed about this for five years.
We created this during russia’s war against Ukraine.
This is a step towards Ukrainian families with children and adults with Down syndrome. But they are scattered across Europe and the world because of the war.
This is one of the elements of our digital ecosystem, which is in our team’s focus since COVID-19.
And this is our online platform, Inclusium. In 2025, it started to breathe deeply.
Inclusium is an Ukrainian-language online resource that hosts video courses for parents, teachers, and specialists in the field of inclusion. Finally, the expertise of our specialists has become more accessible than ever. With just a few clicks on the platform’s navigation bar and registration, parents can get video tips how to improve physical development of an infant with Down syndrome. Or how to talk with teens about sexuality. EDSA webinars with Ukrainian language interpretation, text consultations from lawyers, books about communication skills of children with Down syndrome or how to get ready for school — all available on the platform, from anywhere in the world, at any time.
Untill November 2025, the number of registered users had grown to 1,729, and the total number of active users for the entire period reached 5,800.
The platform contains 44 courses, 4 of them were created and published in 2025, and 5 have been significantly updated. The most popular topics are: “Training for primary school teachers with an inclusive classes”, “Legal aspects of rehabilitation”, and “Down syndrome and the inclusive environment”.
