The meeting of Directors-General for School Education and the Conference on "Inclusion and Equity in Education – challenges and perspectives" are initiatives organised by the Directorate-General for Education and the Directorate-General for School Administration.

The aim of the meeting of Directors-General is the sharing of educational experiences and practices between Member States from a more technical standpoint. The conference provides an opportunity for showcasing experiences with a focus on schools and on students.

The initiative, consisting of two related meetings, is normally organised by each Presidency of the Council of the European Union in the context of the strategic framework for European cooperation in education and training.
