Hi Lauro (Philippines) and your emailed note is a Joy. I just saw Venus (Rehabilitation International, DPI, and more) at the U.N..
As to substance, your email will be reviewed in detail soon, and lets all interested look to tho particular CRPD Articles you kindly pinpoint presently.
And as to process, a wonderful thing among many is that globally land wise we are all around this precious earth but highly networked through communications, cooperation, and collaboration - key CCC/UN and Respectful Interfaces Values.
( The Respectful Interfaces Motto is: Achieving Dialogue While herish8ing Diversity)..
And regarding recent participations, therefore including you as a respectful interfacer, yes there were indeed very interesting and promising interactions with government, civil society, businesses, and individuals at last week's second. convening of States Parties on the 'Disability Convention' as well as other Human Rights initiatives (as well as Development and impliedly Security topics as well)
Looking forward to continued and expanding partnering here and at other interfaces; I'll add you to list for the referenced Education discussion.
Warm regards, LDMF.
P.S. After this emailing, addressee list will likely shorten but you can pass this forward.

Dear Linda,
This is very encouraging news. Certainly, Iwould like to exchange experiences and information related to education with Article 24, 3, 9, 19, 26 and other relevant provisions of CRPD in the background.
I noted that some of the participants here are yahoo groups which I may not be qualified to come in, but in case there are information that may be relevant to the issues that I may contribute, I'll be glad to share and be shared to and from them.
Regards,
Lauro
PS
Am now focused on the promotion of CRPD with Article 24, 3, 9, 12, 19 as my guides.
Any news about the participation of CUNN in the just concluded State Parties conference of CRPD there in New York?
Once, I am settled in my new designation I may be more active in the internet exchanges, but, I'll come to my inbox from time to time and see if there are mails that I could attend promptly.
Original message:
Dear Colleagues:
I am pleased to convey that while in early stages, opportunities are developing within CCC/UN's *Respectful Interfaces* programme to propose U.N. courses or seminars collaboratively with schools at varying levels of education. You are invited into the very earliest visioning phases and there will be a separate discussion group so please wave yes to respectful.interfaces@... <mailto:respectful.interfaces@...>.
Clearly this will be a very collaborative enterprise, so do indicate interest and from what perspectives by writing to us at the above address.
In the rather universal typology of research, development, and production (Our own R.E.S.P.E.C.T. Enterprise and Project Model is what we will be using as a base, with many actor representation), we would love to hear from you soon as we have just started up recently and you will be very welcome.
Best wishes and respectfully interfacing,
LDMF.
Dr. Linda D. Misek-Falkoff
writing to a diverse group of colleagues and happily anticipating collaboration.
