Céline Chatenoud recently took up a position in early childhood special education at the University of Geneva, after 10 years as a professor in the Department of Specialized Education and Training at the Université du Québec à Montréal (UQÀM). Through research and teaching, she aims to contribute to a better understanding of the support needed to enable children with disabilities to express their full potential and grow up self-determined and valued in their diversity. At the heart of her research interests are the mechanisms of exclusion that hinder their full participation in preschool and school settings, and the development of their parents' power to act. A regular member of the Institut universitaire en DI-TSA de la Mauricie Centre du Québec and the Laboratoire Accrochage Scolaire et Alliances Éducatives (lasalé), as well as an associate researcher at the Laboratoire International sur l'Inclusion Scolaire (Lisis), she contributes to a number of studies relating to the development of inclusive educational communities and interprofessional collaboration.
