  Transforming Lives through Co-Design: Griffith University's Inclusive Futures initiative brings together a diverse alliance of designers, engineers, occupational therapists, and individuals with disability. The success of the Disability Design Café pilot project has led to the integration of its co-design blueprint into a course for design students. Our collaborative designs will soon be accessible to the public, promoting inclusivity and innovation. Join us in reimagining disability design and breaking barriers.
