Description

The authors are academics at faculties of Social and Behavioural Sciences and Philosophy at the Universities of Utrecht and Prishtina. Through semi-structured interviews with experts of disabilities and children’s rights and educational support staff they explored the influence of the pandemic on “the well-being and daily activities of children with disabilities and their families” in Kosovo, using data from 12 participants gathered over a week during May 2020. The authors outline some of the rights of children (and children with disabilities) before drawing on other studies’ findings, then detailing their own findings. They compare pre-COVID with COVID, and include qualitative data in the form of quotes. Results are divided into challenges for children, challenges for parents/families and challenges for both; and challenges for support staff and teachers. Explores opportunities as well as challenges. Includes a discussion and future considerations and an extensive bibliography.
