Design
for all
Francesc Aragall is the Founder and President of the Design
for All Foundation, a foundation of international scope
having as its objective to disseminate in all areas of our society
the philosophy of Design for All.
Design for All is the intervention on environments, products and
services so that everyone (regardless of age, gender, capabilities
or cultural background) can participate in our society with equal
opportunities.
With
the principals of Design for All, we want to achieve that any user
can access, use and understand any part of their environment with
as much independence as possible, and can also enjoy participating
in the construction of our society in all types of economic, social,
cultural and recreational activities.
Design
for All is fundamentally based on putting into practice, in an obvious
manner, in environments, products and services, the respect for
human diversity.
If you are interested in this subject, we invite you to register
for our Foundation newsletter or download the Design for All prospectus,
in PDF format, available at www.designforall.org,
where examples can be found of products made through the principles
of Design for All, an analysis of Socio-Political factors and technology
in depth, Design for All initiatives at state and European level
and other relevant information.
