This post around conference planning is particularly relevant to my role - lots to think about!
Hi Anna! Thanks for sharing this fantastic toolkit from C4DISC, it really highlights some crucial best practices for inclusion.
While exploring your articles, I came across this helpful resource: Seventeen Low-Cost Ideas to Make Your In-Person Events More Inclusive, which discusses key measures during events, like ensuring venues are physically accessible and providing audio-visual accommodations such as closed captioning and sign language interpretation.
Iām curious, have you, or anyone from the community, ever attended a conference that felt truly inclusive for people with disabilities? For example, one offering sign language interpretation or closed captioning?
