Greetings on behalf of the International Disability Alliance (IDA)!



IDA and GDI Hub are thrilled to launch a report presenting the findings of the Assistive Technology User Survey which was conducted recently and hosted on IDA's iData platform.



This survey ran between November 2023 and February 2024 to gather evidence on the overall need and access to assistive devices among persons with disabilities and other AT users, identify disability groups that have lesser access to assistive devices and services, and identify barriers faced by underrepresented groups to access assistive technology. The survey was conducted in many languages and accessible formats and had over 1000 respondents.



Based on the findings from the survey we have developed a survey report which will be launched in a webinar on the 27th of March 2024 at 10.00 AM CET (Central European Time) (find your local time here https://dateful.com/eventlink/3101482990<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/dateful.com/eventlink/3101482990__;!!KGKeukY!wZA-DypLnA2Y3j9i4eZ1U1QbkcVt7cCCsdHhXcqhHAkmZaHr8iIXn1JZNBgvNg6kdi7E0HA2BofzvgwDxi56thnfAQxExA$>). IDA is co-hosting this webinar in collaboration with GDI Hub and ATscale.
