Design Right, Design for All

The web is naturally designed to be accessible to all yet sites struggle to live up to that. Why is that and how can we unleash that natural accessibility?

Thursday 11:30

Facilitators: Neil Jarvis, Jason Kiss.
Tags: Access, Community.

This session will explore themes around universal design and accessibility such as NZ and international standards, training, users, captioning (including broadcast media), assistive technology. More importantly why, where and how developers and content owners can find assistance and get it right first time.
