One of the main goals of the "KI-Kompass Inklusiv" project is to involve persons with disabilities in digitalization, digital transformation, and artificial intelligence (AI). The project builds on previous work in the KI.ASSIST project (2019-2022), in which DFKI's EdTec Lab has already successfully collaborated with the three practice partners. Within five years, DFKI will now work with the three partners to build a "Competence Center for AI-supported assistance technologies and inclusion in the world of work" until the end of 2027. The competence center aims to provide low-threshold, needs-oriented, and practical advice and support to various stakeholders in the testing and implementation of AI and on topics relating to AI and inclusion in working life. The research project combines scientific work with comprehensive practical transfer.
The EdTec Lab is the consortium leader of the KI-Kompass Inklusiv project, which is funded by the Federal Ministry of Labor and Social Affairs (BMAS) through resources from the compensation fund for supraregional initiatives aimed at promoting the participation of severely disabled persons in working life.
