Abstract

Empowering people with special needs is a complex process that requires creative solutions to deal with their particular problems. This abstract investigates how innovation and invention can improve the lives of people with special needs by encouraging independence, inclusion, and a feeling of social belonging. The field of assistive devices has undergone a revolution thanks to new inventions and innovative technologies that provide specialised solutions to meet the various needs of people with disabilities. Involving them in the process of designing and developing assistive technologies helps them feel more like agents and owners of the product, as well as guarantees that solutions are customised to meet their unique needs. It is easier to create products that are more intuitive and user-friendly when designers, engineers, and end users collaborate using co-creation methodologies. Social innovations that support the full inclusion of people with disabilities in society, are essential in removing barriers. In conclusion, empowering people with special needs via creativity and invention has the potential to build a society that is more inclusive. Through the effective utilisation of technology and social innovation, we can create a future in which people with diverse abilities can flourish and make significant contributions to their communities.
