Designing Tomorrow for Universal Accessibility | One to One

In this special episode of One to One, host Sheryl McCarthy and guests focus on the pressing issue of accessibility for aging populations and those with disabilities; groups expected to comprise a significant portion of the global population by 2050.
Sheryl sits down with Susan Pinkwater, founder of ThrivAbility Ecosystem, an organization dedicated to creating "a world where accessibility is universal, enabling every person, regardless of age or ability, to participate, connect, and thrive." They are joined by Lennyn Jacob, a CUNY Coalition for Students with Disabilities (CCSD) Advocate and Disability Accommodation Specialist at CUNY. Together they discuss the challenges cities face in providing equal opportunities and the need to prioritize accessibility to avoid a future crisis. They also explore potential solutions and strategies to address the issue.
