Preface
The Cambridge Workshop on Universal Access and Assistive Technology (CWUAAT) is a series of workshops, which is held every two years at Fitzwilliam College in Cambridge University. This volume, Designing for Inclusion: Inclusive Design; Looking towards the Future, comes from the 10th workshop in this series which was planned to take place in Cambridge in March 2020 but was cancelled due to COVID-19. The CWUAAT series of workshops have celebrated a long history of cross-disciplinarity, including design disciplines, computer scientists, engineers, architects, ergonomists, ethnographers, ethicists, policymakers, practitioners and user communities. This reflects the wider increasing realisation over the long duration of the series that design for inclusion is not limited to technology, engineering disciplines and computer science but instead requires a cross-disciplinary approach. The key to this is providing a platform upon which the differe
