Design with All Seminar, Participatory Methods for Social Inclusion was held on 13th June Friday at Copenhagen, Denmark. It is a collaboration between CoDesign Research Cluster (CODE) of the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, Schools of Architecture, Design and Conservation (KADK), Design for Alle Network (DfA) and DESIS Lab of the Hong Kong Design Institute (HKDI).
Over 70 design professionals joined the seminar to explore new insights from research and practice on participatory design approaches, design for all strategies and universal design principles.
