The article deals with the issues of legal regulation of ensuring accessibility of higher education for the disabled and people with disabilities. The relevance of obtaining agricultural education in the Russian Federation, which should be as close as possible to the main consumer — the rural population, is emphasized. The openness of agricultural education to the needs of rural residents will help reduce migration fl ows and preserve young people in rural areas. Attention is drawn to the fact that obtaining agricultural education is possible and accessible not only for people without disabilities, but also for people with disabilities.

The development of any nation depends on its citizens. Every citizen has their contribution to the development of a nation even the disabled person. They also have an equal rights to get a higher education. Higher education increases the chance of employability, thus, affirming dignified life for persons with disabilities. As per Census 2011, in India, out of the 121 Cr population, about 2.68 Cr persons are ‘disabled’ which is 2.21% of the total population. But it has been seen that very few of these people reach higher education. According to census 2011, 61% of the disabled children aged 5-19 years are attending an educational institution, 12% attended educational institutions earlier while 27% never attended educational institutions. That makes the author think and ask about how our higher education institutions are accessible for disabled students. How inclusive are our higher education institutions? In the light of the above-mentioned problems the present paper has discussed the education of children with special needs in higher education specifically with respect to visual impairment, hearing impairement, locomotor disability, and speech-related impairment. The discussion starts with what all kind of legal provisions and reservations which are there for them in higher education and how many are utilized and used by them. What all things are there in the new education policy for them specifically in higher education, whether their needs have been realized in detail or it has been just touched superficially and at the end, few suggestions related to all these issues have been discussed.

The paper focuses on the problem of accessibility and quality of higher education for students with disabilities. We describe our experience in organising network interaction between the MSUPE Resource and Training Center for Disabled People established in 2016-2017 and partner universities in ‘fixed territories’. The need for cooperation and network interaction arises from the high demand for the cooperation of efforts of leading experts, researchers, methodologists and instructors necessary for improving the quality and accessibility of higher education for persons with disabilities. The Resource and Training Center offers counseling for the partner universities, arranges advanced training for those responsible for teaching of the disabled, and offers specialized equipment for temporary use. In this article, we emphasize the importance of organizing network interactions with universities and social partners in order to ensure accessibility of higher education for students with disabilities.

The implementation of qualitative inclusion in higher education institutions is one of the conditions for the constant development of Ukraine. The analysis of statistical data, made by the authors, shows a permanent reduce of the number of people with disabilities, who obtain higher education now. Based on the analysis of modern researches and media materials, authors identify the reasons for this tendency. They believe that one of the main barriers is the inability of young people with disabilities to get a job in their specialty and build a successful professional trajectory. Having analyzed the few of Ukrainian universities’ websites, authors propose the development of a unified approach for the special educational services provision. Authors also determine its main elements as: definition of educational difficulties; systematic monitoring of the availability of higher education institutions and of the level of satisfaction of special educational services; expansion of the collected information about students with disabilities; programs of communication ethics among teachers, students and persons with disabilities; psychological services; monitoring the observance of the rights of students with disabilities; inclusion of students with disabilities in academic mobility programs; employment of students with disabilities; determination of quality indicators for the special educational services provision; providing full information on the possibility of provision services to students with disabilities; representation of students with disabilities in the advertising products of institutions – as equal members of the student community. The authors consider these elements as an appropriate base for determination of the quality of higher education institutions inclusion. At the same time, teachers use the individual approach, adjusting a system of «smart adaptation» for students with different physiological and psychological characteristics.

Thus, with the strengthening of constitutional principles and human rights, the disabled person is described, as a consumer, as hypervulnerable, worthy of specific protection, which will only be effective with the dialogue between the Consumer Protection Code and the Status of the Disabled Person. The research problem centers on how to protect the disabled person as a consumer from the plurality of standards that affect this relationship, in particular the Consumer Protection Code and the Status of Persons with Disabilities. Using a hypothetical methodology, it is assumed that the dialogue of sources method is the appropriate means to effectively protect people with disabilities in the consumer market
