Abstract

For many city-dwellers, today’s modem cities and towns may be convenient and fascinating places for working and living, offering a great variety of opportunities and experiences. But for handicap persons, such built environments are full of uncertainties, anxieties and dangers. Handicap persons encounter many obstacles that prevent them from moving about freely and safely. For wheelchair users, steps and stairways are obstacles. Blind people are endangered by the absence of directional and safety features that they can hear and touch. Many handicap persons live in poverty and need education and training, but these are often located in places where access is difficult for them. In addition, most community centers, parks and places of worship have not been designed to welcome users with handicap.
