Hey all! So proud to be a part of this online community!
A research team at the Center for Inclusive Design and Environmental Access (IDEA), a research center at the State University of New York’s School of Architecture and Planning in Buffalo, is currently conducting a survey about the perceptions and experiences of ramps, lifts, elevators, and escalators in public buildings. The intention of this study is to better understand how these different building parts affect social integration and discrimination. Everybody is welcome to participate regardless of physical or cognitive ability. However, this study is especially interested in the perceptions and experiences of people who have physical disabilities affecting their mobility.
Because the research study uses anonymous online surveys, there no risk to participants in terms of loss of confidentiality. Participating in the study will help designers generate environments that are more sensitive to the social inclusion of people who use assistance and/or assistive devices for mobility. We welcome and encourage you to pass this information on to anyone you think may be interested.
This survey can be accessed with the following link:
