INCLUSIVENESS

Are you coming to train your inclusivity muscle during Dutch Design Week?

The Dutch Design Week starts this Saturday. For nine days, different designers will show their work at various locations throughout Eindhoven. The Embassy of Inclusive Society has asked us to present our Mensenkenners project.

We invite you to take a seat on the Mensenkenners-bike in the Van Abbemuseum.

While cycling, we take you into the world of someone with a disability. What is it like to be deaf? What is it like to be blind? And how do these people want us to interact with them? You'll get answers to all the questions you've never dared to ask. This is how you train your inclusivity muscle while cycling.

Public places too often contain a barrier for people with disabilities. Not just at the front door (something can be done about that fairly easily), but especially in the minds and actions of the people who work there: they suffer from discomfort, ignorance and unintentional clumsiness. Mensenkenners is a project where we work to make public space more inclusive for people with disabilities. With a scalable, accessible online training for employees of stores, museums and restaurants, we actively train their inclusivity muscle. This makes awkward interactions a thing of the past and the public space inviting and connecting for everyone.

Thank you World Design Embassies, Van Abbe Museum & Shay Raviv for this stage. Are you also coming to train your inclusivity muscle in Eindhoven? Check out the complete program here: https://lnkd.in/dGMvq8pa
