Summary

This project has as its main objective the development of a transnational standard measures and reasonable accommodation in academia for students with disabilities international mobility as well as a European, multilingual online platform that hosts a catalog of institutions that meet this standard as well as the common exchange and adjustment of curricular adaptations study centers should be made for students in mobility programs.

There is no common standard on the measures and reasonable arrangements to be made for students with disabilities. This uncertainty is an essential element to understand the low rates of mobility. According to the students themselves, there is no guarantee that the curriculum and accessibility adaptations that will be received at the host university are comparable to those received in origin, restrains them when internationalizing their studies.
