Folks in #bengaluru: do you have any suggestions/recommendations for accessible, wheelchair friendly hotels? Ideally in Indiranagar.

I would strongly advise reading them in tandem, so to understand how the workshop activities shaped the outcomes and thinking around the issue. Please do get in touch if you would like to collaborate with us on any aspect of this work.

We had a fantastic event to launch our reports on digital self determination for people with disabilities, and how designers and technologists can work more thoughtfully towards creating products that are both pleasurable and functional for them to use.
