For one night only, seven of UNSW’s sharpest minds pitch their ideas to revolutionise life as we know it.
It is our great pleasure to invite you to this exhibition to showcase preliminary findings from the study on neurodiverse-friendly public open spaces. The study has received support from the City of Sydney through Ideas and Innovation grant and is conducted by the UNSW City Futures Research Centre in collaboration with University of Sydney and the University of Technology Sydney.
The study addresses the gap in our knowledge of neurodiversity and the needs of this population in public open spaces. Around 15-20 percent of population are neurodivergent (e.g. with autism, ADHD) whose interaction with the world through their senses are different from neurotypical people.
The findings from this study will be used to update the City’s Inclusive and Accessible Public Domain Guidelines (2020) to improve neurodiversity and ensure equitable access to mainstream services for both neurotypical and neurodivergent users.
During the exhibition, we will also be running a survey, open to both neurodivergent and neurotypical attendees. The aim of the survey is to understand whether spaces designed with neurodivergent users in mind benefit everyone. By completing the survey, you will have a chance to win one of ten $50 prizes (Coles voucher).
