STANDING ON THE SHOULDERS OF GIANTS

SACHIN PAVRITHRAN, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF THE U.S. ACCESS BOARD, STAR GUEST LECTURER TO OUR UNIVERSAL DESIGN COURSE

We are proud to teach a groundbreaking course on Universal Design at the University of Miami School of Architecture.

In addition to our four decades of professional experience and thousands of articles of published expertise, we like to use our extensive contacts to bring renowned leaders live to our class via Zoom.

Sachin Pavrithran, a scholar, advocate and blind person, spoke to our graduate and upper-level undergraduate students about the profound responsibilities of the Access Board.

The board creates all of the rules for the built environment under the Americans with Disabilities Act.

Thanks to our brilliant colleague for sharing his expertise and advocacy with our students, while endorsing the need for our Universal Design curriculum at every school of architecture, planning and engineering

We look forward to collaborating him on many inclusive projects.
