Keynote: Moving from Awareness to Action: Creating Inclusive and Accessible Experi...
summary
Claims concrete fixes and failure counts: 82% of Americans use social media (2021), WebAIM finds 86.4% low‑contrast on homepages and ~26% of images with missing alt text, videos often lack captions, and keyboard navigation regularly fails. Demonstrations include a mangled tweet that breaks screen readers and RNIB data showing 9 in 10 blind or partially sighted people struggle with product packaging. Recommended actions are concrete: adopt standards, require training, add camelCase hashtags, alt text, quality captions, and make accessibility part of every team’s workflow.
