Description

The built environment is rarely designed with physical, cognitive or intellectual disabilities in mind, leaving our cities difficult to navigate, unwelcoming, and potentially dangerous for large parts of the population. So what can be done to make moving around more inclusive for everyone? In the final episode of season one of Re-routing the City, host India Block invites guests Dom Hymas and Ruth Ross-Macdonald to discuss how new navigation technologies can create opportunities to improve and prioritise safe and comfortable mobility for all.
