Abstract

The article begins by presenting Index for Inclusion, some materials are oriented on helping school communities to evaluate themselves and to take decisions on improvement in the advancement towards inclusive education. Later, its singular characteristics are commented on: the analysis materials, the participation of the community and the critical friend (whose functions are specifically detailed). Finally, it focuses on a Catalonian schools network project that works with Índex.
