The 12th International Conference on Computers Helping People with Special Needs will be held at the Vienna University of Technology July 14 – 16, 2010 (Pre-Conference July 12 – 13).
ICCHP focuses on all aspects related to Assistive Technologies (AT) and Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) for people with disabilities. According changes in awareness and understanding of disability as well as social and legal frameworks, driven by Disability Rights and Independent Living Movements led to what is known as eAccessibility, Universal Design or eInclusion.
