Session: Inclusive AND accessible content
Accessible code is imperative for inclusion, but all the code in the world doesn’t do any good if the content is not meaningful to our readers.In this session, we’ll go over what we can do as content authors to ensure inclusivity for all of our readers beyond semantic markup and structured content.
Discussion points will include:
- What makes content inclusive? Including: definitions, clarifications, and real-life examples
- Why is inclusive language important?
- How we can embrace accessibility for those with every sort of ability
- Why awareness isn’t enough — how to shift to being more process oriented
