Development of the guide followed a year long consultation with key stakeholders. The guide will be made publicly available to all HEIs.
Dublin City University has launched the first ever Autism-Friendly University Design Guide developed in collaboration with global expert Prof Magda Mostafa, a world leader in the field of architectural design and the author of the world’s first research-based design framework for autism.
The publication will be used to ensure future infrastructural developments at DCU are autism-friendly and to also retrofit existing buildings, where possible.
In addition, DCU is going to make the guide publicly available to all higher education institutions in Ireland and further afield.
