Karyn Moffatt, Associate Professor, School of Information Studies聽

鈥�People with disabilities unfortunately continue to be seen as peripheral rather than active and valued participants in society聽and are often especially forgotten in the design of technology.聽When they are considered, they are almost exclusively viewed through the one-dimensional lens of their disability.聽This underscores the importance of initiatives like the International Day of Persons with Disability, which forefronts not only the rights of people with disabilities but also promotes and recognizes their contributions.聽 It is imperative that we do more to recognize that people with disabilities are (like everyone else) complex individuals with wide ranging desires and needs. Their potential uses for technology expand well beyond compensatory tools, and designers of technology should seek out these opportunities for innovation.鈥澛�
