Abstract

The aim of this research is to identify the motivations for, and barriers obstructing, the adoption of inclusive design practices within industry. The working processes of a number of design consultancies have been audited and large-scale industry surveys conducted. A toolkit aiming to help designers and design managers to appreciate inclusive design has been developed and has received positive feedback from the preliminary evaluation with industry.
