NEURODIVERSITY HUB

Projects & Practices

A curated collection of high-value European and international projects, good practices, case studies, innovations and reusable project results relevant to neurodiversity, inclusive education, VET, employment and digital accessibility.

15 categories Curated rather than exhaustive Official/project links Education · VET · Employment · Research
Selection principle: projects are included for direct relevance to neurodiversity or for strong transferable value in inclusive education, employment, accessibility or neurodevelopment. Programme labels are kept explicit. Section 6.5 is intentionally named Digital Inclusion & Assistive Technology Projects rather than “Digital Europe Projects”, because many of the strongest neurodiversity-specific digital innovations were funded through Horizon, H2020/FP7 or Erasmus+ rather than the Digital Europe Programme.
