Calabria regional education and inclusion initiatives

Overview

In September 2026, Calabria’s regional Councilor for Education, Eulalia Micheli, addressed students at the start of the school year, emphasizing mental health and the introduction of psychologists in schools to support student well-being.

By October 2026, the Calabria Regional Council moved toward formalizing educational support through legislative updates. The Council approved amendments to Regional Law no. 20 of April 4, 2025, focusing on inclusion strategies for students with high cognitive potential and other Special Educational Needs (SEN). The legislation, championed by Councilor Pasqualina Straface, aims to align regional regulations with national standards. The updates also address the administration of medication in schools for students with disabilities or chronic pathologies, with further regulations expected through upcoming regional government resolutions.
