Ms Mabel Chan
Accredited Access Consultant ACAA, Registered Architect (ARBV)

Mabel is an Accredited Access Consultant originally from Australia and is now the leader of Access Consulting in AECOM Asia. With a background as a qualified Architect with focus on age care, she has more than 10 years experience in the Accessibility industry. As an Access Consultant, she has worked on projects from a small branch of a bank to US$300 million commercial facilities, across all sectors ranging from health care, residential, education, government, transport, commercial, art, tourism, sports, recreation and urban design.

While the recent effort of the HKSAR Government in improving Access to all public facilities is gathering momentum, the present objectives remain largely on compliance with current design standards.  A much needed understanding among the building professionals is therefore required, to meet the realistic needs of the People with Disabilities (PwDs) and their rights as affirmed by the Disability Discrimination Ordinance.

The seminar is to reinforce this concept by introducing a proper Perspective of "Access to Premises" in the Hong Kong context, together with an outline of the specialist role of Building Surveyors and other building professionals in Access Consultancy both locally and internationally.
