It has always been Mobility India’s guiding principle to be at the forefront in the development of innovative and customized solutions to assistive technology for improved access and functional independence of people, especially for persons with disabilities. We are glad that we have been able to do this for the past 25 years. The National Conference on Assistive Technology for All – 2030 was held in Bangalore on August 2 – 3, 2019 on the eve of MI’s Silver Jubilee Celebrations. The conference theme emerges from the UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development Goals, in particular, Goal 3: Good Health and Well-Being, Goal 5: Gender Equality and Goal 10: Reduced Inequalities. This is especially with regard to Goal 3, which places good health and well-being for people of all ages as the centre of a new development vision. Organizing such an event at this point in time reinforces two of our key objectives of innovation and improving access to assistive technology (AT). Sometimes the challenges seem overwhelming, but we all are coming together because it is in bringing together our energies and ideas that we can surmount all the challenges that lie before us in enabling persons with disabilities (PWDs) and elders have a better quality of life. Today only one in ten people in need have access to essential assistive technology (AT). Most persons with disabilities and their families are excluded, locked into poverty and isolated by the intersectionality of their oppression and lack of access. Assistive products can transform an individual’s life, as well as that of families and entire communities. Without it, the impact of disease and disability on the person, his/her family and society is heightened. People thus affected are being denied a fundamental human right. In India, the legal framework for the protection of human rights of PWDs has been strengthened with the Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act 2016. However, the enforcement of its provisions needs to be strengthened with the active synergy of government with public, private and social sectors – local, national and global. This National Conference on AT was conceived as a forum for knowledge sharing and learning about innovative digital technologies, to dialogue on ideas and solutions which will enable AT reach the most unreached of populations and to achieve the mission health and wellbeing for all. My gratitude to NIEPMD and ICRC-New Delhi for their collaboration; and to Rehamo, a leading mobility equipment supplier in Bangalore for their sponsorship. I am thankful for Ministry and WHO officials, grateful to all the distinguished guests from within India and abroad, experts, professionals and communities of practice, disabled activists and caregivers of PWDs, and delegates who have helped to make the conference a success. I am also thankful to the many well-wishers who have held MI in their hearts and minds and sent in messages of goodwill and hope. My thanks to the print and electronic media who covered the event. To NIMHANS who provided the venue for the event goes my grateful thanks. I tender my deep gratitude to the Board of MI, to the founder Mr. Chapal Khasnabis, and the MI team who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to make the conference a success. It is a team that has taken MI from strength to strength over the past 25 years, and are its hope for the next 25 to deliver where it matters most, and make the world a better place to live in with dignity. Ms. Albina Shankar Executive Director-Mobility India Proceedings of National Conference on Assistive Technology for All AT-2030 5 Preface The developments in various transforming technologies of the last two and a half decades could not have been made possible without the networking and coming together of different stakeholders from domains of medicine, engineering, design, academics and research, policy formulation, donors and investors. We have endeavoured to attempt the same with the National Conference on Assistive Technology (AT) for All-2030 held at Bengaluru from 2nd – 3rd August 2019, the first of its kind event in India. Distinguished speakers and delegates to the Conference on AT came from ministries of the government, business and industry, health and rehabilitation, engineering technology, design and architecture, academia, local and global donors, service users and their caregivers, and interested individuals. This was possible because of the willingness in all of them to dialogue on the common challenges and opportunities before society; and to explore how AT and assistive devices can dramatically improve the quality of life of PWDs, ageing populations and their caregivers. I am glad that the conference happened at this juncture – the 25th anniversary of Mobility India (MI). It was a huge collective effort by the MI team from practically the end of 2018, although the germ of the idea started 2 years earlier with WHO’s GATE initiative. Experts and decision makers, disability activists, students and professionals came when we invited them ‘to dialogue on AT and what it means for us today’. The effort involved in this process was enormous, even daunting because of the umbrella theme of the conference. However, it appears that the climate was more than ready for a dialogue of this kind. Invaluable support was provided by MI founder Mr. Chapal Khasnabis

  • Folding Chairs
    Folding Chairs When I began researching folding chairs I expected to find an abundance of information about how they were used, what materials were best, where to purchase them and similar questions to aide in a civilian portrayal. After all a variety of folding chairs abound in military photographs and illustrations. The further I researched the more evident it became that I was not going to find a list of chairs which Civil War era civilian reenactors should be using, an abundance of manufacturing statistics leading up to the war, or even advice for selecting the chairs and their upholstery in home economy books. Instead, I found despite a history dating back centuries, folding chairs were minimally used domestically during the first half of the nineteenth century. This was followed by a resurgence in popularity during and immediately following the War, which may have sprouted during the 1850s in the United States and earlier in the century in Europe*. This finding leaves us with a significant quandary regarding the use of folding chairs among civilian reenactors. True. Folding chairs offer several appealing factors. They are easy to pack. They are easy to carry. They offer a periodesque look to a display, home or encampment. They are frequently less expensive then mid-nineteenth century non-folding chairs or their reproductions. They are also documented for military use. Are any of these factors justification enough for the use of folding chairs by civilians? Sorry. I am not going to answer that question for you. I am going to provide you with a summary of what information I have found to aid you in your decision on chair use.

  • Restaurant Intypes: Contemporary Interior Design and Theory Study
    RESTAURANT INTYPES: CONTEMPORARY INTERIOR DESIGN AND THEORY STUDY A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts by Soomin Jasmin Cho May 2009 © 2009 Soomin Jasmin Cho ABSTRACT The focus of this thesis research is the identification, development and naming of a series of archetypical practices for restaurant designs for the on-going Intypes (Interior Archetypes) Research and Teaching Project. Initiated in 1997 this project creates a typology of contemporary design practices that are derived from reiterative historical designs that span time and style and cross cultural boundaries. Research regarding designing of restaurant spaces in terms of creating spatial experiences through interior design elements hardly exists, whereas numerous books featuring “hip restaurants” or restaurants designed by celebrity architects or designers abound. This thesis developed theoretical studies based on restaurant design from those examples that have been recognized and published in significant architectural and interior design trade journals. Previous graduate students have developed Intypes for other practice types, including retail store, art museum, boutique hotel, as well as elements, such as materials. However, the body of knowledge being developed by the Intypes project lacked practices about restaurant design, one of the major hospitality practice areas. This thesis resulted in the development of fourteen Restaurant Intypes according to color schemes, seating arrangements, display aesthetics, lighting strategies, wall treatments, and materials. These Intypes are identified and classified based on a comprehensive survey of contemporary trade magazines and scholarly articles, secondary sources, and site visits of significant recently completed restaurant interiors.

    CENTERS FOR MEDICARE & MEDICAID SERVICES Moderator: Barbara Cebuhar 06-28-12/3:00 p.m. ET Confirmation # 61960445 Page 1 Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services Special Open Door Forum: Medicare's Prior Authorization for Power Mobility Devices Demonstration Thursday, June 28, 2012 3:00pm - 4:30pm Eastern Time Conference Call Only The purpose of this Special Open Door Forum (ODF) is to provide an opportunity for suppliers and providers to hear more and ask questions about the Demonstration. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) will conduct a demonstration that will implement a prior authorization process for certain medical equipment for all people with Medicare who reside in seven states with high populations of fraud- and error-prone providers (California, Florida, Illinois, Michigan, New York, North Carolina, and Texas). This is an important step toward paying appropriately for certain medical equipment that has a high error rate. This demonstration will help ensure that a beneficiary’s medical condition warrants their medical equipment under existing coverage guidelines. Moreover, the program will assist in preserving a Medicare beneficiary’s right to receive quality products from accredited suppliers. CMS received many comments/suggestions on the Prior Authorization of Power Mobility Devices (PMDs) demonstration. The CMS has considered these comments carefully. In response to comments received from stakeholders, the CMS has made a number of modifications to the Prior Authorization of PMD demonstrations. To read more about the Demonstration visit: http://www.cms.gov/Research-Statistics-Data-and- Systems/Monitoring-Programs/CERT/index.html?redirect=/CERT/03_PADemo.asp Participants may submit questions prior to the Special ODF to [email protected] .

    The Case for an Independent Police Accountability System: Transforming the Civilian Review Process in Rochester, New York By Barbara Lacker-Ware and Theodore Forsyth The Case for an Independent Police Accountability System: Transforming the Civilian Review Process in Rochester, New York © Copyright 2017 Barbara Lacker-Ware and Theodore Forsyth All Rights Reserved The authors may be contacted about this document at [email protected] DEDICATION We dedicate this report and its accompanying ordinance to the memory of community activist Rev. Raymond L. Graves, called the “spiritual father” of civilian police review. As a civil rights leader for over 40 years, Rev. Graves was a fearless advocate and prophetic voice for justice in Rochester. It is also dedicated to the following individuals, who died during the course of conflicts with Rochester Police Department officers: Ronald Frazier 1975 Willie Carter 2002 Denise Hawkins 1975 Craig Heard 2002 Alecia McCuller 1983 Lawrence Rogers 2002 Kenneth Jackson 1984 Patricia Thompson 2006 Louis Davila 1985 Hayden Blackman 2011 Calvin Greene 1988 Israel “Izzy” Andino 2012 Vandre Davis 2001 Richard Gregory Davis 2015 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This report and its recommendations were initially undertaken under the auspices of the Coalition for Police Reform (CPR). CPR was established in 2014 through the Campaign for Police Accountability and its subsequent Community Safety Agenda. The authors acknowledge and appreciate the considerable work of CPR members who contributed ideas and strategies toward the vision of an independent civilian oversight process. These efforts were the genesis of this document. We are especially grateful for the efforts of Mike Bleeg and Kerry Coleman, who provided extremely valuable research and information along with crucial content.
