DIGIN 2026, taking place this year for the fourth time, is dedicated to raising awareness, exploring, and presenting new ways of using assistive technologies to support the inclusion of people with various forms of disabilities.
We are pleased to invite researchers, educators, developers, policymakers, and other professionals to submit their contributions to the DIGIN 2026 – Digital Inclusion Workshop.
