European Partnerships & EU-Funded Initiatives
Raising the Floor – EU is a non-profit association (ASBL) based in Brussels, Belgium, advancing social equity through digital inclusion across Europe.
Founded in 2016, RtF–EU works closely with European institutions, research consortia, and industry partners to design and implement EU-funded projects focused on accessibility, inclusive design, and emerging technologies.
Through research, development, pilot programs, and stakeholder engagement, RtF–EU ensures that accessibility is embedded into European innovation ecosystems and policy frameworks. It translates the broader Raising the Floor mission into collaborative European action.
RtF–EU connects European policy, research, and practice to the global movement for digital inclusion.
