I'm working in the Norwegian Telecom company Telenor, In our R&D dep. My background is from Psychology, and I've been doing research on user Interface design and general HCI, before I begun working with assistive technology 5 years ago. The term "design for all" have very little tradition in our part of the world, but we have now managed to get funding for a project that focuses on how a telecom company like ours can incorporate such design strategies. Designing for accessibility is of course "the right thing to do", but we need good tools to actually have programmers apply these strategies. These tools should also have capabilities of improving the overall qualities on the product their making, to motivate for use of the tool itself.
