Proceedings of the 12th Cambridge Workshop on Universal Access and Assistive Technology, held in Cambridge, 2 – 4 April 2025

The Cambridge Workshop on Universal Access and Assistive Technology (CWUAAT) series has been running since 2002, hosting the multifaceted dialogue on design for inclusion. It involves a wide range of disciplines including design, computer science, engineering, architecture, ergonomics, policy and gerontology. CWUAAT has been running every 2 years since 2002, with a break during the COVID-19 pandemic.

This report arises from the 12th CWUAAT workshop, held at St Catharine's College, Cambridge on 2-4 April 2025. It contains the papers selected by an international panel of currently active researchers for poster presentation at the conference.

The conference theme was New Frontiers for Inclusion, including the possibilities and challenges for inclusive design offered by AI and other emerging technologies. The poster papers were divided into the following groups:

• Design approaches

• Designing for an ageing population

• Designing for particular needs

• Interaction techniques and modalities

• AI and inclusive design
