Australian Rehabilitation & Assistive Technology Association Biennial Conference

Monday 22 – Wednesday 24 September 2008, Adelaide, SA

ARATA’s biennial conference provides a forum for exploring issues in and the value of assistive technology for people with disabilities and the ageing.

The conference will focus on enhancing and recognising the value of participation, through technology, of people with disabilities and those who are ageing. In keeping with world trends, all aspects of human activity will be considered - home, education, work and leisure. Participants will be able to experience the creativity that is possible through the effective use of technology. The experience of older people and those with disabilities themselves will be a valuable part of this event.

• Augmentative & Alternative Communication
