The Challenge
People with disabilities around the world face daily barriers traveling and experiencing the world around them. Just getting to where they need to go is difficult, public transportation is often unreliable and inaccessible, adaptive vehicles are expensive, and many sidewalks lack the necessary features for their needs. Even when they manage to get where they need to go, they’re often met with more accessibility challenges. Inaccessible infrastructure in businesses, hotels, and public spaces further excludes them from everyday experiences. These barriers persist not because people don’t care, but because of a lack of knowledge. Many are unaware of the challenges people with disabilities face, how to address these issues, and how accessibility solutions can benefit everyone, not just those with disabilities.
Vision and Approach
Our vision is a future where the world is accessible to everyone. We take cohorts of people with diverse disabilities around the world to uncover the barriers of accessibility, learn how people in different cultures adapt to these challenges, and draw inspiration from those leading the way in accessibility. Through these trips, we conduct research to give organizations the insights necessary to develop affordable accessibility solutions that shift people’s awareness about accessibility.
Why it Matters
Accessibility issues are rarely isolated. One barrier often causes others, but the opposite is also true—small changes in the right areas can create a ripple effect, leading to bigger, lasting improvements. By understanding how these parts connect, we can help remove obstacles more effectively, opening new markets, sparking innovation, and building a world where accessibility benefits everyone. This shift will change lives and allow people with disabilities to access education, pursue careers, and chase dreams once out of reach. For those in the most inaccessible regions, it could mean the difference between distant dreams and a world full of opportunity.

Help lead the future of accesibility.
