Open Space with people with disabilities

[John Moore]

Chris

A couple of points that we found working with diverse disabilities.

If you use any form of public  address system anyone who is blind will
have difficulty locating where people are speaking from (because all
voices come from the speakers) - which they find disconcerting.

Where you have written instructions you could illustrate the meaning of
the words with sketches (a clock to indicate time for example) if you
have participants with learning disabilities.
