%T Mind the Gap Between Higher Education and the Labour Market for Students with a Disability in the Netherlands: A Research Agenda %A Büscher-Touwen, Marjolein %A Groot, Marian de %A Hal, Lineke van %J Social Inclusion %N 4 %P 149-157 %V 6 %D 2018 %K labour market transition; stakeholders %@ 2183-2803 %U https://www.cogitatiopress.com/socialinclusion/article/view/1655 %X The transition from higher education to the labour market is experienced as difficult by students with a disability. This gap between higher education and the labour market has tangible consequences for the participation of (young) people with a disability. Research shows that these students have a higher unemployment rate. This article addresses this gap by studying existing research data and by exploring experiences of students with a disability and other stakeholders as collected by the Dutch expert centre Handicap + Studie. We focus on the perspectives and responsibilities of the different parties involved: educational institutions, employers, municipalities, ministries and students with a disability. With this exercise, we want to contribute to putting this ‘gap’ and its stakeholders on the research agenda, arguing that more in-depth research on the transition from higher education to the labour market for students with a disability is needed. We will therefore conclude with themes that need to be researched in order to gain more knowledge for reducing the gap. %C MISC %G en %9 Zeitschriftenartikel %W GESIS - http://www.gesis.org %~ SSOAR - http://www.ssoar.info
