The Enabling Power of an Accessible Web
Add to calendarThe Web is an opportunity for unprecedented access to information and interaction for people with disabilities. When the Web meets its full potential, it is accessible to people with a diverse range of hearing, movement, sight, and cognitive ability. Thus the Web can remove barriers to communication and interaction that many people face in the physical world. However, when websites, web technologies, or web tools are badly designed, they can create barriers that exclude people from using the Web. This session highlights how people with disabilities use the Web and the essential components for making the Web accessible.
