InclusiveSpaces realizes the inclusive design, monitoring and evaluation of urban space. InclusiveSpaces introduces co-design accessibility concepts, engaging people with disabilities and older people to improve inclusiveness, social cohesion and climate change mitigation and adaptation. It develops socially innovative solutions that foster universal design principles, empower diverse targetgroups, and promote climate-friendly practices. Five essential planning and design tools will be developed to enhance accessibility and comfort: 1) a travel demand data collection and evaluation of accessibility tool, 2) a comfort-based accessibility mapping tool, 3) an accessibility routing tool tailored to visually impaired and mobility-impaired individuals, 4) a first-of-its-kind digitized tool for conducting accessibility audits in buildings and public spaces, and 5) a Universal Design Manual for the Built Environment, including Mobility Hubs. In addition, InclusiveSpaces develops advanced assistive technologies: 1) a Mobility Kiosk of shared electric wheelchairs powered by solar panels and providing shared mobility options to people with disabilities, 2) a device offering enhanced accessibility to beaches and waterfronts, 3) an Upright Tricycle providing inclusive personal mobility to people with reduced mobility, 4) and 5) Indoor and Outdoor Assistive Technologies enhancing the accessibility and mobility of people with disabilities. The InclusiveSpaces planning and design tools and the climate-friendly assistive technologies will be demonstrated, assessed, and evaluated in real-world demonstrations in 6 European cities and countries, including Athens-Penteli, Geneva, Madrid, Larnaka, Hamburg and Budapest. Project findings will be translated into actionable policies and recommendations. inclusiveSpaces is a project, and an initiative to standardize and digitize design frameworks towards a transition to an inclusive and climate-friendly built environment.

"Being disabled is certainly challenging. Fortunately, there are a number of products available to assist with mobility issues faced. The problem, unfortunately is that most of these solutions have been designed to be purely functional and seem to disregard the importance of the user’s desire to feel good about using the product and to look stylish as a result. Exercise has proven benefits for all; National Institute of Clinical Excellence (NICE) has included controlled aerobic exercise such as cycling in its recommendations for people suffering from motor weakness or reduced cardiovascular fitness as a result of neurological problems such as Multiple Sclerosis. Balance impairments are commonly experienced making riding of standard bicycles particularly difficult and unsafe. Tricycles are available but their design could be considered cumbersome and 'childlike' and therefore unappealing to ride for many. Our solution is the Triple Tread trike; a unique lightweight, robust and visually attractive upright tricycle suitable for use by persons with physical disability or other balance issues. It uses the principles of Ackerman steering geometry which overcomes the issues of poor stability and tyre wear that are associated with dual-wheel steering on a fixed axle. With the addition of independent suspension and specialist engineered parallelogram tilt geometry at each axle; our system will enable both front wheels to safely navigate undulating road surfaces. These technical and design developments along with its aesthetic appearance will mark the Triple Tread trike out from the rest of the products currently on the market."
