About this initiative

Third-level education poses unique challenges for students with additional needs, in particular disabilities, neurodivergence, or stress and anxiety. Addressing their needs requires innovative solutions that promote personalised learning, inclusivity and mental well-being. Social robotics offers the potential to support students in their learning and well-being, within a tertiary education context.
