Design4allnet

D4ALLnet aimed to develop a common platform for discussion and debate, in order to promote and advance DfA practices in the Information Society, raise awareness on Design for All (DfA) through specific outreach activities, and in particular to support the efforts of EDeAN towards the implementation of the e Europe 2002 / 2005 Action Plan. The project has developed the necessary infrastructure for virtual networking (e.g., Special Interest Group formation, on-line discussions, information sharing, etc) to enable systematic cooperation amongst EDeAN members and with other networks, stakeholders and actors in the field, to advance common objectives, including DfA policies, standardisation, benchmarking for assessing and validating DfA experiences, proactive assessment on DfA, and the study of required and recommended features for an interdisciplinary program of study on DfA. The consolidated experience will become part of a DfA Resource Centre ARIADNE aiming to facilitate knowledge sharing amongst DfA practitioners, offer access to resources on DfA and on-going and continuous update of the pool of relevant and validated information.
