Book excerpt: Amidst the evolving landscape of education, a persistent challenge arises: the need to foster inclusive learning environments that cater to the diverse needs of every student. Despite strides towards educational equity, barriers such as gender disparities, inequality, and inadequate support for students with varying abilities continue to impede progress. Recognizing this pressing issue, this book emerges as a timely solution poised to transform educational practices. By reframing education through the lens of the biopsychosocial model, Integrating the Biopsychosocial Model in Education offers a holistic approach that transcends traditional pedagogical boundaries. Through an exploration of biological, psychological, and social factors, educators are equipped with the tools to understand and address the complex needs of their students. From promoting good health and well-being to fostering inclusive classrooms, the biopsychosocial model serves as a guiding framework for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and cultivating a more equitable educational landscape.
