"Access and the City - universally designed communications for ease of visiting and effective living in cities and towns"

20 November 2008, Guinness Storehouse, Dublin, Ireland

The Centre for Excellence in Universal Design (CEUD) and Dublin City Council are hosting a conference to mark the occasion of the European Observatory's General Assembly. The aim of the European Observatory is to improve the ”accessibility to urban environments and services, and creating new management models and that take into account the characteristics and interests of everyone that live in the municipalities.” The conference will explore themes of:
  • Universal Urban Navigation
  • Universal Transport Information
  • Tourism for all: providing visitors with the information they need

This international conference will show case current best practices from cities, report on latest research findings and provide information on guidance and resources on making information in the urban landscape universally accessible.
