Hello there, I already posted this last month, but there could probably be someone new in the Forum who could be interested, so I'm re-posting this call for paper.
I also take the chance to launch a proposal: It'd be cool to meet if some of you is working in Italy. Just come up in some way and we'll try to arrange something. Thank you.... "For those of you interested in e-Inclusion, Design for All/Universal Design, here is an event that will take place in Florence, Italy, in summer 2009, by the Italian National Research Council. Few topics: Technological innovation in Assistive Technology; The need for interdisciplinary/multidisciplinary approaches to the development of integrated solutions; The contribution of Assistive Technology and Design for All towards inclusion; Equipment interconnectivity and compatibility, covering hardware, software and wireless, to favor integrated solutions to inclusion; The need for standardization (formal, informal and de facto); Cultural aspects: e.g. acceptance of different approaches, designs and aesthetics of AT devices and inclusive living environments, high tech versus low tech, creative solutions for complex problems; Social aspects: penetration of AT and integrated approaches, the role of Europe in building up inclusion competence in emerging and developing countries, etc.; Technology transfer, towards not only AT industry, but also mainstream industry.
