D3.7- Validation and Assessment

This deliverable reports on the usability and accessibility of the GreenSCENT platform and relatedapplications (apps) and educational resources. This includes the interface, along with the digital tools andactivities (demonstrators), and educational material, developed throughout the project.In keeping with the principles of Universal Design (UD), the usability of the platform and apps developedwere tested against two international accessibility standards: the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines(WCAG 2.2) and the EU standard EN301 549. When UD principles were not met, accessibility measureswere subsequently taken. This deliverable is divided into four main sections. The first introductory sectionprovides definitions for the key terms used throughout. With key terms established, the second section of thisdeliverable outlines the guiding principle that guides this project, namely, “leaving no one behind.” Guided bythis principle, the following sections detail the steps taken to ensure the accessibility and usability of thetechnological tools, activities and materials developed throughout the project. These include:● GreenSCENT website developed by Uninettuno● GreenSCENT platform developed by Engineering (ENG)● Four technological tools:○ Immersive interactive storytelling platform (GreenVerse) developed by ENG○ Augmented reality (AR) app on air quality developed by Barcelona Supercomputing Center(BSC)○ Citizen journalism app developed by ENG○ Air quality app and platform for CleanAir@Schools developed by 4sfera● Farm to Fork innovation challenge platform developed by Agorize● Teacher training kits developed by Uninettuno.UAB oversees this deliverable with contributions from ENG, BSC, 4sfera, Agorize, Uninettuno andDemocracy X (formally the Danish Board of Technology).
