The Right To Live in the World: Design and Disability
Facebook Event
When access for disabled people began being seen as a “Civil Right,” it amounted more than protests; it meant a major re-organization of our designed world—one that has been ongoing and continues to this day. In this kind of world building, Design asserts a profound, if little recognized—ability to assert what has been called disabled people’s “right to live in the world.”
