MISSION

UPDATE - University of Pavia. Developing Accessibility: Techniques and Experiences - is the set of all the experiences on the issue of accessibility made at the Deparment of Civil Engineering and Architecture (DICAr) of the University of Pavia (Italy).
 
The theme of accessibility in the particular case of historical buildings has to be considered as one of the necessary conditions for the conservation and the enhancement of the cultural heritage. Working on accessibility means also to think about social sustainability and inclusive participation.
The Research Team coordinated by prof. Alessandro Greco has been working on the theme of accessibility and usability for all since 2006, with experiences of teaching and learning, researches and projects. The main works concern the accessibility of the urban pedestrian mobility and the accessibility of the historical buildings.
