This year, it is co-organized by McGill University and the Université de Montréal, and will consist of a four-day event from August 8-11, 2017. Professor Guffey will give a 90-minute talk on Friday, August 11th on the campus of McGill University. A renowned scholar in design history, Professor Guffey’s latest work examines issues of disability and access – access being the theme of DH2017. Her upcoming book, Designing Disability: Spaces, Symbols and Society, will be released later this year.
