About the Centre for Inclusive Design  The Centre for Inclusive Design (CfID) is a leader in inclusive design methodology and application, with over 40-years' experience working with governments, educators, business, industry, and community organisations to deliver policies, products, services, and experiences which are accessible to all.  Inclusive design connects government and industry with communities of people who are traditionally excluded or unable to access products, services, and the built environment. Incorporating their lived experience into the design process increases the accessibility of the planned service, policy, product, or built environment.   CfID strives to ensure those with physical and hidden disabilities and disadvantages are considered throughout the decision-making process by both government and the private sector.  As a not-for profit working as a social enterprise, CfID specialises in bringing together different perspectives to the design process and delivering useful and usable solutions.  CfID exists to help governments, organisations and industries embody Inclusive Design.   For more information, visit https://centreforinclusivedesign.org.au/
