Welcome!

The Accessibility Research Collective brings together scholars from multiple research groups as a way of sharing our processes, plans, and thinking as they evolve alongside contemporary social issues related to computing, disability, and design. We work in the fields of accessible computing, design, software engineering, and education and collaborate closely with community members through all phases of our work. Our efforts are informed by disability studies, critical theory, participatory design, action research, and more. We are committed to transforming research processes and practices to be more equitable and just. Our work is funded by the National Science Foundation, Toyota, Microsoft, and a UC Irvine Chancellor’s Inclusive Excellence Award.
