Frequently Asked Questions - How is ISdAC different from other disabilities projects and organisations?

This is a first draft answer to the question, comments and improvements welcome! Please comment by mail to ISdAC at secretary@isdac.org

We think the main difference should be:

• ISdAC is not an exploratory project, it seeks to move from research, exploration and discussion to widespread implementation; 
• ISdAC is broadly based - it seeks to include opportunities for people with all kinds of disabilities; 
• ISdAC is not just for people with disabilities, it is driven by people with disabilities, providing its own evidence of the social and economic impact that PwDs can make to the Information Society; 
• Most relevant projects are "bottom up" - they are working on particular aspects of the opportunity, ISdAC seeks to complement this by working "top down" - we seek support, action and intervention at the highest levels of policy and society in Europe and in the Member States; 
• ISdAC is not competing with existing projects, institutions and networks. We seek to link with, support, reinforce and implement the wide range of excellent work that is already going on.
