Appendix A: Examples of inclusive design approaches in built environment education is based on her paper ‘Strategies for teaching and recruiting Designers for an Inclusive World’, given at the Scientific Contact Forum, Brussels, Belgium June 2002. The section has been updated with some additional UK based information.

Andrew Shipley: from the Disability Rights Commission kindly allowed us to refer to and draw on his discussion paper ‘What is Inclusive Design and how can it achieve a built environment to be enjoyed by everyone?’ arising from the November 2001, DRC Round Table Discussion on inclusive design which involved over 50 experts from Scotland, England and Wales.
