CFP: CWUAAT 2027 (Inclusion matters): Deadline July 8th

The submission system for full papers for CWUAAT 2027 is open on Oxford Abstracts at: https://app.oxfordabstracts.com/stages/81697/submitter



[cid:98a5744e-c4c8-4849-bca6-8e9851fc6db4]The CWUAAT (Cambridge Workshop on Universal Access and Assistive Technology) series has hosted the multidisciplinary dialogue on design for inclusion for 25 years, since 2002. It involves a wide range of disciplines, including design, computer science, engineering, architecture, ergonomics and human factors, policy and gerontology. The 2027 edition will mark 25 years of collaborative research, celebrating what we have learnt and reflecting on what we still need to do.


CWUAAT is characterised by a single session running over three days in pleasant surroundings. Past attendees to CWUAAT have enthused about the ability to easily meet and socialize with new colleagues who share similar interests, but are from other disciplines. CWUAAT 2027 will be held in St Catharine's College, Cambridge, UK on 7-9 April 2027.


Submissions are welcomed on all aspects of inclusive design, universal access and assistive technology. The conference subtitle is 'Inclusion matters', with subtopics on a range of issues such as leadership, working with people, understanding what it means to be inclusive and making an impact, as well as methods, tools and strategies to enhance design practice. In addition, we invite submissions that look back over the last 25 years of progress and reflect on the progress made and challenges that still need to be addressed.

Papers can be submitted to one of two categories: long papers and poster abstracts. All submitted papers will be peer-reviewed by an international panel of currently active researchers. Accepted long papers will be published in a volume by Springer and presented orally at CWUAAT. Accepted poster abstracts will be published in a technical report and presented as a poster.
