Engineering for Access: From Prototype to Practice in Project TEAL
Engineering is not only about what we can build, but **who gets to benefit from it**. Project TEAL showed me how accessible, human-centred design can reduce barriers to communication, independence and healthcare—and how engineering can contribute to reducing inequality.
