This presentation highlights some of the innovative activities that have led to an improvement in the access of children with disabilities into Community Based Childcare Centres (CBCC) as a result of a pilot project which involved community volunteers, parents of children with disabilities, health care professional and educational professionals. The paper shares the findings from a two-year pilot project and discusses how this approach can be applied to the complexities of caring and educating children with disabilities in Malawi. Finally, it considers how greater links between stakeholders responsible for the delivery of early childhood education and primary education to children with disabilities in light of the post 2015 MDGs can be forged.
