Abstract

This STS, following a series of STSs and sessions on Cognitive Disabilities and Accessibility in ICCHP over more than two decades, documents the development on how the neurodivergent people and their support/care sector develops in defining and addressing needs towards R&D for both Accessibility and Assistive Technologies (AT). It reports on progress in guidelines, standards, methods, techniques, and tools for addressing Accessibility. And it gives a comprehensive overview to new and innovative AT solutions and service provision models for better participation, including studies and reflection on efficiency, effectiveness and impact on social inclusion and quality of life. This is accompanied by reflections on socio-economic, business and policy/political developments.
