Inclusive education is fundamental because it promotes equity and equal access to education for all people, regardless of their abilities, characteristics or circumstances. By prioritizing diversity and adapting pedagogical approaches, an environment is created in which each individual can develop their full potential and contribute fully to society. However, in Azerbaijan, disabled children are educated in special schools, boarding schools or homes although in overall experiences children who lack some skills complete all levels of education together with their peers. Such integration, that is, inclusive education prevents discrimination between children, allowing children with disabilities to feel like equal members of society. Considering this, the objective of this work is to analyze the progress, challenges and opportunities for the development of inclusive education in Azerbaijan. As a result of the investigation, it became clear that the reforms are aimed at adapting education to international principles and standards. One of these principles is the humanization of education and its articulation with human rights standards.
