Inclusive Design: Products that can be used by a wider proportion of the community
It is widely known and accepted that the global population is getting older. Studies indicate that by the year 2050, approximately 50% of the developed world’s population will be over the age of 50.
It is also suggested that by 2050, the ratio of people under 65 to over 65 will be 2:1! (in the year 2000, we were at around 9 : 1).
What does this mean for product developers?
