Abstract

At present, there is a growing focus on fostering reflection on educational and social inclusion within the framework of social justice to enhance the quality of education. Inclusion and social justice have emerged as key concerns for institutions' long-term viability. The United Nations Children's Fund and the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organisation have also taken an interest in social justice and inclusion, which has resulted in policies meant to break down barriers and advance inclusive systems that give people from all walks of life access to education worldwide. In addition to creating an environment where the younger generation has equal opportunities in an inclusive learning environment, promoting social inclusion, equality, and social justice within the educational system also aids in community transformation. To ensure a better link between social justice and inclusiveness, policies must be presented within a rhetoric of rights rather than individual needs.
