History
Clarkson and Coleman describe the emergence of inclusive design in the United Kingdom as a synthesis of existing projects and movement. Coleman also published the first reference to the term in 1994 with The Case for Inclusive Design, a presentation at the 12th Triennial Congress of the International Ergonomics Association. Much of this early work was inspired by an aging population and people living for longer times in older ages as voiced by scholars like Peter Laslett. Public focus on accessibility further increased with the passage of the passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990.

In 2016, the Design for All Showcase at the White House featured a panel on inclusive design.

Criticism
Sasha Costanza-Chock argues in Design Justice that "individual inclusive design projects cannot, on their own, transform the deeply entrenched systemic factors that militate toward design that constantly centers an extremely limited set of imagined users." Jeremy Myerson suggests that even good inclusive design projects do not always increase human agency.
