This project, seed funded by the DIIU, aims to understand the processes and systems used by operators of public spaces to facilitate accessibility for people with disability. 

Using a systematic literature review and interviews with a range of stakeholders, Dr Carlo Caponecchia, Dr Vanessa Huron and Dr Beth Mayland examined barriers to and facilitators of improving accessibility of public spaces and reported their recommendations. A summary of their findings is now available to read, with further academic journal articles to be published in coming months.
