SENIA
SENIA (Special Education Network in Asia) is designed as a network forum for any professional working with children with special educational needs in Asia. The heart of SENIA is the advocacy for children with special needs in educational settings.
Since its beginnings, the group has grown and included many international school teachers, educational psychologists, support assistants and other professionals in the field of special needs. Along with their partner schools, SENIA provides ongoing professional development opportunities for anyone who wants to learn more about how to better support students with special education needs.
