DESCRIPTION: The CWUAAT (Cambridge Workshop on Universal Access and 
 Assistive Technology) series has hosted the multidisciplinary dialogue on 
 design for inclusion for 25 years\, since 2002. It involves a wide range 
 of disciplines\, including design\, computer science\, engineering\, 
 architecture\, ergonomics and human factors\, policy and gerontology. The 
 2027 edition will mark 25 years of collaborative research\, celebrating 
 what we have learnt and reflecting on what we still need to do. CWUAAT is 
 characterised by a single session running over three days in pleasant 
 surroundings. Past attendees to CWUAAT have enthused about the ability to 
 easily meet and socialize with new colleagues who share similar 
 interests\, but are from other disciplines. CWUAAT 2027 will be held on 
 7-9 April 2027 in St Catharine&rsquo\;s College\, Cambridge\, UK\, a 
 beautiful college in the centre of Cambridge. As well as the paper and 
 poster sessions\, we plan to include a traditional Cambridge three-course 
 gala dinner and plenty of networking opportunities. For further 
 enquiries\, please contact: cwuaat-enquiries @eng.cam.ac.uk. Vist the

  Conference theme and special topics Submissions are welcomed on all 
 aspects of inclusive design\, universal access and assistive technology. 
 The conference subtitle is &lsquo\;Inclusion matters&rsquo\;\, with 
 subtopics on a range of issues such as leadership\, working with people\, 
 understanding what it means to be inclusive and making an impact\, as well
  as methods\, tools and strategies to enhance design practice. In 
 addition\, we invite submissions that look back over the last 25 years of 
 progress and reflect on the progress made and challenges that still need 
 to be addressed. Submitting a paper Papers can be submitted to one of two 
 categories: long papers and poster abstracts. All submitted papers will be
  peer-reviewed by an international panel of currently active researchers. 
 Accepted long papers will be published in a volume by Springer and

  a technical report and presented as a poster. The paper submission system
  will open around the start of July 2026. Submission deadlines: 8 July
