A model for inclusive and exclusive practices Jyrki Reunamo 24.-25.5.2008 Helsingin yliopisto/Sokla
Differentiated (lost)57 % • The excluded individual faces a dead end, there are no choices, only separation. The process leads to hopelessness and anger. • Exclusion is passed on from one generation to another, from older to younger. Alcohol, drug abuse and violence intertwine repeatedly. Criminality. A vicious circle is formed. • Loneliness, mental problems, depression. • No language of one’s own. Diversity and Global Education
Not meeting the objectives17 % • The parents are tired, the everyday contrasting demands exhaust. • Feeling of inferiority, weakness, bad self-esteem. • The child does not manage school or is left behind. • The objectives and reality do not meet, one can not cope, no control of own life. • Feeling discomfort about the economic situation and society’s competitiveness. No money or consumer activity. • Insufficient in Finnish language skills. Diversity and Global Education
Not participative 14 % • The child has no experience in participation. • The parents withdraw from educational responsibility, parents do not know how to interact with their children, and parents leave children on their own. • The underachiever does not participate even though she/he could. • General passivity in different fields of life. • People are interested in spending, not creating. Diversity and Global Education
Not harmonious12% • The excluded are not equal actors in the official, dominant or favoured culture. Economical troubles, unemployment and inadequate education results in exclusion. • The problems occur in many fields of life and they tend to accumulate. • Equality can also mean the obligation to be the same. The gifts and differences of people are not considered. • People in a weaker position get no support or help. • One can be bullied or harassed in school or at work, one is not accepted.

The steps forward The key Finnish element for fighting exclusion is to find personal relevance that can be valued by others as well Diversity and Global Education
