What is it about?
How can we help people with intellectual disabilities to participate in research? This paper presents the evaluation process of a research training programme adressed to people with intellectual disabilities to improve their understanding and abilities for research in an inclusive research framework.

Why is it important?
The evaluation results show that the research training programme has been a positive social experience, and show that research training can be an important element not only to improve knowledge of how to do research but also to improve the group building and group cohesion and to better understand how to provide support to people with intellectual disabilities in inclusive researches. There are not many research programmes addressed to people with intellectual disabilities so the one presented with their evaluation can help to reflect on this kind of programmes.
