Many people have a concept of disabled people as wheelchair users, while non-physical disabilities account for more than 50% of disabilities (Gov.uk, 2021). My project aims to define a more inclusive International Symbol of Access through information and data visualisation. In addition, my project is inspired by Data Humanism (Lupi, 2017) and Data Feminism (D’Ignazio and Klein, 2016). I want to empower UAL students and make the conversation about ability and representation more visible and accessible to a wider audience. My kit of parts encourages UAL to define their own symbol of inclusion. I have drawn on a co-design process to developed some possible directions, and am excited to see how others re-define and develop these starting points.
