We are living in a time of increased neurodiversity and awareness about ADHD, Dyslexia, Autism, and others neurological states. In fact, one in eight people are considered neurodiverse but fewer than 50 percent know it. Neurodivergents tend to be high energy, out of the box thinkers, excel in a crisis, and be bold problem solvers, but navigating the modern workplace can be a challenge. Not only is designing space to be inclusive the right thing to do, there is a compelling business case for it as well. Space today needs to reflect the diverse makeup of organizations to set all up for success.
What is Inclusive design
Inclusive design is a design process in which a mainstream product, service or environment is designed to be usable by as many people as reasonably possible, without the need for specialised adaptions.
Inclusion Day is about accepting, supporting and embracing differences and diversity in a way that clearly shows all individuals are valued, recognized, and accepted for who they truly are. This involves demonstrating respect for the abilities, beliefs, backgrounds, and cultures of those around you and engaging those with diverse perspectives, so that others feel an unconditional sense of belonging for who they are.
