Abstract

Inclusivity in education has been viewed as an important aspect of socioeconomic development due to its contribution to equality in society and economic growth. The concept of inclusivity in higher education, however, has just recently become a wider scholarly concern. Considering the range of barriers for the implementation of inclusivity in higher education, it is critical that national policies promote inclusivity. This article aims to identify how inclusivity in higher education is constructed in the national policy-shaping documents of Latvia. The research utilizes the distant reading method of content analysis.
