This spring, the League is focusing on the imperative for a more accessible built environment, from different perspectives and through different typologies. The overarching concern is to look beyond the often inconsistently executed design ramifications of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) to address how the fields that are charged with planning, design, construction, and management can more fully address an inclusive, well-designed approach to disability justice.
This event will bring together architects, educators, and advocates to explore the process of creating learning and teaching environments where the broadest range of bodies and minds can thrive. Focusing on educational facilities for K-12 students, , the presentations will examine both the physical design of school buildings and the ways in which educators create spaces of learning for young people of all abilities.
The program will close with a panel discussion and an audience Q&A moderated by Irina Verona and Jennifer Carptenter.
