The Department of Architecture hosted Eng. Sara Naseer and Eng. Hanin Abu
Al-Haija on Thursday, November 23, 2023. Both engineers are from the University
of Science and Technology to give a lecture to second-year design students,
taught by Dr. Yumna Aldmour. The lecture covered various topics related to
architectural design for people with disabilities. It included an introduction
to the types of physical and mental disabilities and how to deal with design
voids and environmental adaptation to achieve comprehensive accessibility. The
lecture also showcased some experiments conducted during the Just-Able project,
which aims to promote the rights of people with disabilities in participation
and integration. On behalf of Mu'tah University and the Department of
Architecture, we thank Eng. Sara Naseer and Eng. Hanin Abu Al-Haija for this
informative and enjoyable lecture.
