Global Public Inclusive Infrastructure: Making Progress
Cognitive WAI March 2014
WHY create a GPII ?
What is the problem?
1. Solutions don’t exist for everyone
2. Some can’t afford solutions that are good enough to work with newer technologies
3. Solutions are too complicated
4. Even when a fit does exist – people can’t find it
5. Solutions don’t work across all of the different platforms/devices that people encounter and have to use
What is the GPII ?
An infrastructure that does 3 things
1.Makes it easy to find out what things will help a person to use digital interfaces (and stores the information in the cloud)
2.Invokes those features on any device the person encounters, anywhere, anytime.
3.Makes it easier and less expensive to create, market and support new solutions, internationally
What does this look like?
First, a person finds what works for them…
…and stores in the cloud
Developers create solutions and store them in the cloud
When person encounters a device – it looks up what they need
And an interface they can’t use…
Becomes one they can

Who is building the GPII?
• A consortium of over 50 companies and organizations in over a dozen countries– (the Raising the Floor Consortium)
• Under funding from Canada, Europe and the US– Governments, Foundations, Industry, and Partners
What makes it work?
Helping users find
out what will help them…
Providing access instantly, anywhere, onany device
Making it easier, lower-cost to create & market new solutions
