With Matthew Lowell, Tamara Barrage, and Lana Skaf

Disability is a taboo issue in Lebanon. People who are disabled are not integrated in society, in fact they are shun away in their homes and ignored on the streets. By developing various research methods to understand their needs and pinpoint the critical problems in this dilemma, these designers realized that in order for disabled people to be an integral part of society, they have to contribute with their abilities. Find out what they suggested as a solution.

This is one of the talks for Beirut Design Week 2012. The talks are all dedicated to the role of design in social and environmental context.
