This presentation was part of the Universal Design Conference at Sydney Town Hall on 30-31 August 2016. A critical part of planning for safe evacuations is providing clear wayfinding information for all occupants, with appropriate exit and emergency signage. This is currently not the case in Australia or overseas. In fact, the current approach to providing exit signs is very limited and does not consider the abilities or needs of all members of society. This can cause some people to experience confusion, or delays, or being directed to a non-accessible evacuation path during their evacuation. The initiative presents a solution to bridge this gap in current exit sign requirements and to help identify important accessible features that can be provided as part of enhanced evacuation strategies. This includes suitable signage to show accessible exit paths, safe refuge areas, emergency evacuation lifts and other evacuation devices in a consistent approach. This paper will present the case to support the use of these enhanced emergency and exit sign systems that adopt universal design principles. This approach is considered worlds best practice and can help provide a much safer and more inclusive built environment for everyone. Universal Design Meets the Exit Sign is an initiative of The Accessible Exit Sign Project. The Project is an international awareness campaign that promotes the need for an accessible evacuation route from all workplaces, public buildings, and transportation.]]>

Universal design is a design process that is inclusive of a diverse population. The aim of universal design is to improve human performance, health and wellness, and social participation. Universal design is a process of thinking and designing inclusively, whether it is a house, website, product, service, or a learning program. Universal design is itself explained in a diversity of ways across the world: design-for-all and inclusive design are other terms used. Universal design is an international movement and recognised by the World Health Organisation and the United Nations. The WHO Age Friendly Cities program and the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disability both cite universal design as the means by which to create greater social and economic inclusion for everyone. Australian state and federal policy documents also recognise universal design as the way forward for creating greater inclusion for all Australians. Who should attend?

Following the success of the first release, this is now the 2nd edition of this Guidebook. It has been updated with new content added. Lee Wilson researched the area of evacuation considerations for people with disability for over 12 months. Following this, the first edition of the Guide was produced titled Evacuation of People with Disability & Emergent Limitations: Considerations for Safer Buildings & Efficient Evacuations. Now, over two years later, the 2nd edition has been released with new content and discussion on the needs of people with disability, including new terrorist threats. The 2nd edition of the Guide contains 189 pages in total, including useful information with considerations for all building occupants, including people with disability. The Guide includes templates for personal and group emergency evacuation plans (PEEPs and GEEPS). Whilst undertaking the research to prepare the Guide it became evident that: 1. Building owners, building managers and employers need to take a holistic and proactive approach in ensuring they have met the needs of all building occupants and have plans in place for evacuation of their building; and 2. A significant proportion of people entering these buildings could be exposing themselves to an unacceptable risk every time they enter unless their needs have been considered and the necessary plans for their safe evacuation are in place.]]>

The Universal Design Meets the Exit Sign White Paper presents the case for a new generation of exit signs to to be used in all forms of transportation, facilities and buildings. The White Paper discusses the many complex issues that have led to the development of this initiative and argues for the support of these new emergency and exit signs. The White Paper includes an Appendix, which is titled Universal Design Meets the Exit Sign White Paper Performance Assessment Template by Lee Wilson Version 1.0 The performance-based template provides support to accept the use of The Accessible Exit Sign Project signage as a variation from the prescriptive Deemed-to-Satisfy provisions of the building code. The template also provides support for this approach with consideration to the content of the White Paper.

Universal Design Meets the Exit Sign is an initiative of The Accessible Exit Sign Project. The Project is an international awareness campaign that promotes the need for an accessible means of egress. The objective of The Accessible Exit Sign Project is to start discussions between industry stakeholders, disability groups, legislators, developers, and insurers etc., to look at better building design solutions that provide safer buildings, reduce risk and meet the needs of all occupants. Lady holding a bag with the Universal Design Meets the Exit Sign wording on it, with a green exit sign showing person running followed by a person using a wheelchair, moving in the same style as the running person.A critical part of any strategy for safe evacuations is providing clear wayfinding information for all occupants, with appropriate exit signage to identify the accessible exits, refuge areas, evacuation lifts and other evacuation devices. The Universal Design Meets the Exit Sign concept presents a case to support the use of these signs in all buildings, which can help provide a safer and more inclusive built environment. The objectives being to help facilitate acceptance of the new Accessible Means of Egress Icon on a new era of exit signs and emergency signage. The approach taken when preparing this paper has been to release a combination of mediums, including a website, audio files and a document in accessible formats. These are now available for download. http://universaldesignmeetstheexitsign.com/white-paper-in-print/ These propose the use of new inclusive accessible exit signage.]]>
