Inclusion, now, future and crystal ball moments…..
How can your designs be accessed and used by as many people as possible, regardless of age, gender, disability or personal circumstances?
The heart of designing inclusively is to design for the whole person and not just a characteristic.
Jane will use her wealth of experience to discuss what inclusive design means and outline the process for designing inclusively and the framework needed for thinking about inclusive design at critical points in the design cycle.
