Trading Places: Ten Year of the DBA Inclusive Design Challenge at the RCA

To celebrate ten years of the DBA Inclusive Design Challenge, the Helen Hamlyn Centre is organising a special exhibition at the Sackler Centre for arts education at the V&A in spring 2010, sponsored by the Department of Work and Pensions.

This exhibition, entitled Trading Places: Ten Year of the DBA Inclusive Design Challenge at the RCA 2000/10, will be held from 19 April to 16 May 2010. A special creative industries night will be held at the Sackler Centre on 27 April in partnership with the DBA and V&A to celebrate the show.

The Trading Places exhibition will then travel to Boston's Institute for Human-Centred Design in autumn 2010 for a showing before an American audience.

Inclusive Design - Makes sound commercial sense...

BT is inviting businesses to attend a free seminar in London which will set out the business case for inclusive design, and provide hands on advice through practical workshops on how to start implementing inclusive design principals. Stephen Timms MP, Financial Secretary to the Treasury and Minister for Digital Britain, will give the keynote address at the event (February 2 2010), which aims to explain the how and the why behind inclusive design.

The event will mark the introduction of a lengthy collaboration between BT, Helen Hamlyn Research Centre and Cambridge University. For more information and to register your interest in attendance make the jump below
