MUSE - Objective: Accessibility

The MUSE joins the 2021 initiative of the Day with the event "Objective: accessibility", which will be held on 2 and 3 December, and will have as its common thread that of collaboration.

The programme sees the participation of many local institutions engaged in the social sector, a valuable network of relationships aiming to achieve innovative accessibility projects, always in step with the times and with the needs of those who live a situation of disability every day.

An entire afternoon of workshops, presentations and meetings focused on the theme of accessibility, with a flagship project: the Open Access Hackathon, a 24-hour marathon - starting on 2 December - for the design and implementation (at the MUSE FabLab) of devices to help people with sensory-perceptual disabilities, useful to enjoy the themes of the New Gallery of Sustainability.
