This summer school invites researchers, PhD students, and industry professionals interested in topics related to accessible computing, inclusive design, assistive technologies, and disability innovation.

Each day will feature outstanding speakers who will share their expertise on topics related to accessibility, inclusive design, responsible AI, and HCI research. Participants should expect 4 full days of talks, interactive sessions, and networking events.

The school was made possible thanks to the support from ACM.
