Accessible ​Events & Meetings​

Making events and meetings accessible for all is something we’re asked about again and again. Whether it’s a team meeting, a webinar, a workshop in your offices, or a large conference, ensuring people with disabilities can fully participate isn’t optional. But, in practice, it’s not always clear what “accessible” really means – or where to start. In this session we explore how to make your in-person, hybrid and digital meetings and events accessible. We look at: Who needs accessible events, and what are the cost-benefits of meeting their needs? How to assess and choose accessible venues Making pre-event communications, presentations, and recordings accessible Ensuring inclusive interactions in meetings and events This audio was originally recorded as a webinar. You can access the video recording of the webinar, and its transcript, here: https://hassellinclusion.com/webinars/accessible-events-meetings/ Access it for free by registering on HiHub (https://www.hassellinclusion.com/webinars/) which will also give you access to recordings of all our past webinars, and keep you updated on upcoming webinars.
