We live in a world where accessibility barriers are diverse and complex, and new ones are emerging at an exponential rate. - How do we support inclusive decision-making? - How can we develop accessibility standards that are responsive, inclusive, and effective? - How can we promote the inclusion of people with disabilities in media production, representation, and consumption? To answer these questions, we need to build an expansive community of practice that encompasses the full range of experiences of disability and other areas of expertise needed to realize accessibility goals. This conference is an opportunity to co-create resources and to share knowledge and lessons learned in advancing accessibility and inclusion. We invite you to join us in this collaborative effort, and to ensure that the global accessibility agenda is guided by people with disabilities. Together, we can make Canada and the world more accessible and inclusive for everyone. \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ Une conférence visant à promouvoir l'accessibilité et la conception inclusive dans divers contextes. Nous vivons dans un monde où les obstacles à l'accessibilité sont divers et complexes, et où de nouveaux obstacles apparaissent à un rythme exponentiel. Comment soutenir la prise de décision inclusive ? Comment promouvoir l'inclusion des personnes en situation d’handicape handicapées dans la production, la représentation et la consommation des médias ? Comment pouvons-nous élaborer des normes d'accessibilité qui soient réactives, inclusives et efficaces ? Pour répondre à ces questions? Nous devons créer une communauté de pratique qui englobe l'ensemble des expériences des personnes en situation d’handicape et d'autres domaines d'expertise nécessaires pour atteindre les objectifs en matière d'accessibilité. Cette conférence est l'occasion de cocréer des ressources et de partager les connaissances et les enseignements tirés de l'avancement de l'accessibilité et de l'inclusion. Nous vous invitons à vous joindre à nous dans cet effort de collaboration et à veiller à ce que l'agenda mondial de l'accessibilité soit guidé par les personnes en situation d’handicapées. Ensemble, nous pouvons rendre le Canada et le monde plus accessibles et plus inclusifs pour tous. Please be advised that OCAD U hosted events may be documented through photographs and video.
