The University of Ottawa Cognitive Accessibility Collaboration is:

Evidence to inform cognitive accessibility standards is scarce, but precious to the industry, the public sector and workplaces that want to better respond to 10% to 40% of their target market, beneficiaries, or employees. Our established partnerships with the private and public sectors support the rapid uptake of research.
  • A unique inclusive research infrastructure that can transform research practices to become inclusive of persons with cognitive disabilities. Professor Cobigo contributes to making research processes, material, and outputs accessible. 30+ persons with a range of cognitive abilities contribute to research and development projects, under the direction of professor Cobigo.
  • A hub where people with cognitive disabilities, their caregivers, and allies can share and learn about solutions to increase the cognitive accessibility of their environment. We offer webinars, workshops and training in partnership with other organizations to build a campus that nurtures neurodiversity. There is also a great need for professional training on accessibility, as many companies are developing their internal capacity for accessibility and diversity.
