On tuesday May 25, we can all celebrate the annual games accessibility day. We do question if there is much to celebrate for, but do you know any other good reason to celebrate on the 25th of May?

Making all games accessible to people with lifelong or temporary physical and/or cognitive disabilities is an important need for the videogame field in general. At the same time the ability to use games to directly help people with disabilities is an important output of the games for health field. Much of the research and development activity in the general field of games accessibility has important crossover benefits to the health field.   Games Accessibility Day is an entire event devoted to talks, networking, and demos dedicated to making all games more accessible, and helping people with disabilities play their way to better health and wellness.
The third games accessibility day is organized by the gamesforhealth organisation. find more information on the day and on the conferences they organize about serious games at: http://www.gamesforhealth.org/details.html
