Abstract
ICOM Italy established on 2007 a thematic commission for museum accessibility. A lively debate, with both Italian and foreign colleagues, arose the opportunity of creating an International Committee for museum accessibility, inclusion and usability. Such an interdisciplinary and complex theme (motor, sensory and cognitive disabilities, social frailty, etc.) should be discussed in a participatory manner. Many governments are now finally concentrating on this theme and the Italian Ministry of Culture recently created a dedicated working group. Purpose of the meeting is to open a discussion about the Italian project and the opportunity to establish an International Committee for Accessibility.
