The new website of the "Inclusive University NRW" funding programme was presented at the annual presence event of the network of the state working group study and disability in the state of North Rhine-Westphalia (LAG SB NRW) on 27th October 2025.

The website makes the impact of the "Inclusive University NRW" funding programme of the Ministry of Culture and Science of the state of North Rhine-Westphalia visible by presenting over 90 measures of 22 universities that have been implemented with the funding. As examples of good practice, these measures show how social, digital and structural barriers can be removed, study conditions improved and students with disabilities and/or chronic illnesses can successfully complete their studies as a result. In addition to documenting good practice, the platform makes it clear that inclusion at universities is transferable, effective and forward-looking.

The website was created on the initiative of and in close cooperation with the Inclusive Universities NRW network, the LAG SB NRW and the state working group of representatives for severely disabled people at colleges, universities, university hospitals and university-related institutions in the state of North Rhine-Westphalia (LASH NRW) and promotes the continuation of the "Inclusive University NRW" programme beyond December 2026.
