OSUN Inclusive Teaching Handbook

The Open Society University Network’s Inclusive Teaching Handbook is a collaborative, open educational resource (OER). Designed for teachers in colleges and universities, it presents a hands-on guide to making the higher education classroom more inclusive.

It was produced in collaboration with the Open Society University Network and supported by a grant from the Open Society Foundation from 2024-2025. The OER contributors present a variety of global perspectives on inclusion from within OSUN institutions and beyond. The digital ‘chapters’ presented by these global leaders, complete with handouts, resources, videos, and other materials, are not meant to be exhaustive. Rather, they provide insight and examples into how higher education teachers can address pressing issues, such as gender equality; disability justice; anti-racism; multifaith understanding; and more, through classroom curricula and teaching techniques.

The OER was developed by members of Central European University’s Yehuda Elkana Center for Teaching, Learning, and Higher Education Research, and built on the multi-year work of the center, including the OSUN-funded Developing Teaching Professionals project.
