How can digital inclusion become a reality? There are many technological tools focused on the inclusion of people with disabilities in general, but most of them are not accessible to people with intellectual disabilities. This excludes them from today‘s information society.
The “Able to Include” project addressed this issue: The project developed assistive technology to support people with intellectual disabilities in using social media.
More information about the Able to Include project can be found on the dedicated website.
