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

Come to the II Conference on Knowledge Transfer in Social Sciences and Humanities

Following the success of the 1st edition of the conference “Knowledge Transfer in Social Science and the Humanities”, the UAB is organising a follow-up event that continues the debate and dialogue previously initiated, addressing how research in the social sciences and humanities (SSH) can be transformed into real impact through services, networks and strategic collaborations. A morning of discovery in which we will discuss knowledge transfer instruments, share success stories and create new opportunities between universities, public administration and businesses.

When? 16 April, from 10:00 to 13:30, in the auditorium of the Rectorate building on the UAB campus.

Audience attending the previous knowledge transfer conference, held in the UAB auditorium.

Discover everything AccessCat has to offer: accessibility services, technologies and resources

Usability testing labs for your products, advice to ensure your events are accessible, consultancy to identify accessibility issues on your website, training to remove communication barriers on your social media channels, and much more in our catalogue. 

And yes, everything featured in the catalogue has been developed by research groups and is based on their scientific and research results.

These are the 22 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.

Meet the affiliated entities that support the AccessCat Network

AccessCat serves as a bridge between research and industry. That is what motivated dozens of entities to become affiliated: to be part of a community that connects researchers, institutions, experts, companies, and entities linked to the accessibility sector.
