Towards Inclusive Digital Participation Tools

Description

Facilities such as parks and cycling infrastructure are intended to encourage an active lifestyle. Yet they are not always accessible to underrepresented groups such as the elderly and refugees. With seed funding from the Institute for Preventive Health, the EQUAL team explored how digital participation tools, coupled with emerging technologies such as AI and eXtended reality, can give these groups a voice, to ensure that their needs are taken into account when designing these facilities.
