AccessCat Network

The Accessibility Innovation Network of Catalonia is a knowledge transfer network. We want to offer solutions to a diverse society where everyone should have access to information and communication

Sign up for the new edition of AccessCat online training capsules

AccessCat training returns on 20th and 27th June, with six 15-minute sessions open to all, free of charge, and delivered by researchers from the network that explore accessibility in communication and information from various perspectives.

This is the third edition of the AccessCat training capsules. View previous series: The 15x15 of 2023 and The 6x15 of 2024.

These are the 18 research groups in the AccessCat Network

The main goal of the research carried out by the research groups of the AccessCat Network is to provide accessibility solutions for a diverse society that must be inclusive and universal.

Who are they? What do they do? What technologies, services, and educational resources do they offer? Learn more about AFIN Barcelona, CLiC, DiCode, DIDPATRI, GIAP, GRIHO, GTI, LSC Lab, MiA, Neolcyt, NODES, QURBIS, ReLaTe, STS-b, TALN, TRACTE, TraDiLex, and TransMedia Catalonia.

Cardboard cubes with the logos of the research groups of the Network decorate the CCCB at the AccessCat Innovation Day.

Meet the affiliated entities that support the AccessCat Network
