Target skills

Understand the link between inclusion and project management.

In the business world, inclusion is closely linked to notions such as equal opportunities, diversity and the prevention of discrimination linked to disability, age, social and cultural origins, gender, sexual orientation or physical appearance.

"Inclusion is therefore a democratic effort to ensure that all citizens, whether or not they have a disability, can participate fully in society on the basis of equal rights". Inclusion aims at taking into consideration each person as a unique case.

In addition, inclusion is a cross-cutting concept among the Sustainable Development Goals [SDGs] established by the member states of the United Nations by 2030.
