designers but those who commission design and dream up new products for the market. This proved to be the case. The success of this workshop and of the 24 Hour Inclusive Design Challenge, held as part of the Include 2005 conference at the Royal College of Art, has seen requests come in thick and fast for initiatives on the Inclusive Design Challenge model. Workshops of one to three days in duration have been held in the UK, in collaboration with the College of Occupational Therapists, as well as in Israel and Japan. In October 2006, the Helen Hamlyn Research Centre will also be organising a 48 Hour Inclusive Design Challenge for design teams belonging to the 140 member firms of the International Association of Universal Design (IAUD), the Japanese network organisation that promotes the subject. This Challenge will be the centrepiece of their 2nd international conference on Universal Design to be held in Kyoto, 23-25 October. In the words of the classic Virginia Slims advertisement “You’ve come a long way baby!” Or as Clive Grinyer, keynote speaker at the DBA Inclusive Design Challenge award event, put it: “This is what is so great about the DBA Challenge, it is the perfect example of design thinking, building on new knowledge; placing designers in unfamiliar situations and forcing them to understand the extremities of ability creates a powerful force for innovation.” Challenge 2006 describes in detail the six projects of the DBA Inclusive Design Challenge 2006 and then looks at highlights of the Challenge workshops to see how others in the UK and abroad have tackled the task of designing inclusively with creative input of users for whom design is crucial to their quality of life.
