DESCRIPTION

ONLINE – ZOOM

You are invited to attend this Not-to-be-missed Workshop:

Presented by All IN Access Design Train, disability and universal design and accessibility (UDA) specialists, Catherine Karusseit and Janri Barker. Both are keen advocates for UDA who envision a South African built environment accessed and enjoyed freely with dignity by all people.

When working toward achieving universal access in the built environment, SANS 10400 Part S minimum requirements are limited. This full-day PIA CPD training event is purposely conceived to empower practitioners to achieve best practice, going beyond minimums, through an appreciation of diversity in disability and complexity of functional needs as technical determinants.
