Join this exciting PechaKucha showcasing the latest research and innovations working to make our public spaces more inclusive for neurodivergent people. 

It is estimated that around 1 in 7 people in the UK identify as neurodivergent. However, despite making up a sizeable chunk of our population, their needs are often neglected in design processes, making it difficult for them to navigate and feel comfortable in public spaces. 

In this PechaKucha, those at the forefront of inclusive design research will share their thoughts on the importance of inclusive design, the barriers that often prevent this from happening, and the physical and cultural changes needed for organisations to make to create real change. We will also hear from those who putting this research into action, by placing inclusivity at the forefront of their projects -from the initial planning stages right through to final handover to the custodians of the space.
