| Abstract: | As part of the EU-funded VOICE project, a conceptualisation framework is being developed to guide and support artist-led community engagement in tackling Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 11, 12, 13 and 17. Inclusive design plays an important role in developing the framework and associated resources. This paper summarises key artist-led initiatives in Europe, and identifies two unique features of the VOICE project in comparison to existing initiatives. Through engaging the project consortium partners, the authors illustrate an initial framework, and outline the plan for further, iterative development, aiming to make it useful for all potential users including the VOICE consortium, artists in communities, community organisations and local government, and the EU public. |
| Description: | The Cambridge Workshop on Universal Access and Assistive Technology (CWUAAT) series has been running since 2002, hosting the multifaceted dialogue on design for inclusion. It involves a wide range of disciplines including design, computer science, engineering, architecture, ergonomics, policy and gerontology. CWUAAT has been running every 2 years since 2002, with a break during the COVID-19 pandemic. This report arises from the 12th CWUAAT workshop, held at St Catharine's College, Cam-bridge on 2-4 April 2025. It contains the papers selected by an international panel of currently active researchers for poster presentation at the conference. The conference theme was New Frontiers for Inclusion, including the possibilities and challenges for inclusive design offered by AI and other emerging technologies. The poster papers were divided into the following groups: Design approaches; Designing for an ageing population; Designing for particular needs; Interaction techniques and modalities; and AI and inclusive design. We would like to thank all the authors and researchers who have contributed to CWUAAT2025. |
