Call for entries to the International Design for All Foundation Awards 2013

We are delighted to announce that entries are now being accepted to the International Design for All Foundation Awards 2013. The deadline for submitting entries is 17 February 2013.

The main aim of the awards is to recognise the efforts of private companies, not-for-profit organisations and public bodies across the world to promote equal participation by all in the construction of society. In so doing, they also aim to draw international attention to best-practice examples within the different areas of Design for All.

The award categories for this year's edition are as follows:

  • Project undertaken by a not-for-profit organisation.
  • Project undertaken by a government or other public body.
  • Project undertaken by a private company or professional.
  • User-centred design in Living Labs: Project proposal.

The award ceremony will take place on 20 March 2013 during the International Design Biennial in Saint-Étienne, organised by the Cité du design, which takes place from 14 to 30 March under the theme "Empathy, or the experience of the other".
