Event description

This workshop is offered in English with themes on accessibility, inclusion, and accessible resources. This interactive workshop explores how community makers are improving accessibility through open-source assistive technology. Participants will learn about the Neil Squire Society’s local device library, how it supports people with disabilities, and how free, customizable tools are designed and shared.

The session includes a hands-on showcase of 3D-printed assistive devices and an interactive discussion on inclusive design and everyday problem-solving. Open to people of all abilities, no technical experience required.

The presenter of this workshop will be from the Neil Squire Society.
