Description

Information and communication technologies are ubiquitous in our culture illustrated by the "internet of everything" where networks connect people, data, processes and things. However, people with cognitive disabilities, particularly individuals with IDD, have limited or no access to informational and communication technologies. The Rights of People with Cognitive Disabilities to Technology Information and Access is a catalyst for discussions and solutions to solve this critical societal issue.
