Universal design is about making places and resources useable by a world that is very diverse. We all learn and live in different ways. Our goal is for information, communication and the built environment to be accessible to all. This is regardless of education, language, or disability.
Our unit works with organizations to evaluate, deploy, and monitor universal design strategies in action.
Topics include review of print and online products, communication, environments, and devices. Clients include higher education, social service agencies, health care, city planning, and employers.
