The Global Disability Innovation Hub was born out of the legacy of the London 2012 Paralympic Games and launched by Mayor of London Sadiq Khan in September 2016.
Based at UCL on Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, GDI Hub sits within the Department of Computer Science and is formed of an Academic Research Centre and a Community Interest Company (a non-profit, mission-led organisation).
Our mission is to change how we think about disability through co-design, collaboration, and innovation. We provide a platform for the talents of disabled people and the expertise of practitioners, academics and local communities. Over the next ten years we want to become the leading place to research, study, practice and share disability innovation, globally.
