Angela Carter and Katie Loop’s presentation on Academic Ableism in December was so popular, they are both back again this month.

Digital accessibility often focuses on technical standards and laws, but cultural and social dimensions are just as important for meaningful accessibility. In this webinar, Luke Kudryashov, from the Disability Resource Center, will introduce the concept of disability culture in relation to digital technologies and discuss ways everyone can contribute to a culture of accessibility in which people with disabilities feel valued and welcome.
