It aims to foster a deeper understanding of the challenges faced by people with disabilities navigating urban environments and to promote inclusive practices in urban planning and mobility. By bringing together stakeholders from diverse backgrounds, the event would catalise positive change to enhance urban design and mobility for all.
Recognising the importance of urban tourism to the visitor economy, the event will also examine ways in which cities are working to ensure equal access for all to urban streets, heritage buildings and monuments, for the benefit of local communities and visitors, making use of participatory design approaches and smart data.
