The approach to the Astronomy, the concepts, the findings and the development of the sense of wonder before the comprehension of the natural world is a  human right. The education for inclusion in Astronomy uses a range of educational and scientific insights that bring the sky to a palpable and sensitive space by generating specific resources.Creating strategies, tools and resources to provide the people with special educational needs or people with visual, hearing and/or motor disabilities, a participative learning place, accessible and, at the sametime, funny is part of our general project on Astronomy and inclusion.The presentation is at: http://www.ictp.tv/eya/2014/smr2571.php?day=7
