Include Conference
September 17, 2015 - September 18, 2015
The theme of Include Conference 2015 is Disruptive Inclusive: Disruptive ideas in inclusive design.
Ever since the international inclusive design community first came together around the needs of older and disabled people for the inaugural Include Conference in 2001, a series of disruptions have moved the tectonic plates under the field.
Definitions of inclusive design have expanded, new directions have proliferated and the rapid emergence of new technologies has altered the landscape too. Co-design, co-creation and crowdsourcing have re-cast the relationship between designers and users; social innovation and digital manufacture have raised new agendas. As a result, the pluralistic world of inclusive design now looks very different from the picture at the turn of the new millennium.
