Empowering through assistive technology: methods and tools developed by the European EUSTAT Study

This fact sheet reports on the findings of the EU-funded EUSTAT project (Empowering Users through Assistive Technology), carried out in 1997-1999 by a international consortium including organisations of people with disabilities, academic institutions and rehabilitation centres. Although it was a pioneering study and assistive technology (AT) has significantly advanced since that time, the relational approach and the methodologies developed by the EUSTAT study are still fully valid today.
