* [[Accessibility SG Calls/2022]]
** ISOC has formed an informal accessibility working group comprising staff from across a number of areas such as policy, engagement and content.
+
* [[Accessibility SG Calls/2023]]
** This group wishes to collaborate with our Standing Group to develop a framework of accessibility for ISOC.
 
** The first step is an accessible content strategy for 2022.
 
** James Wood explained that a Content Foundations training program for staff is being developed and one module is on accessibility. He will forward the draft module to us for feedback.
 
** Our input:
 
*** content training needs to include demonstrations by persons with disability in using content
 
*** need to ensure that content is manually checked for accessibility through contractors
 
*** need to employ persons with disability at ISOC
 
*** need to ensure current and new online tools are accessible
 
*** importance of ongoing collaboration to ensure policy and programs incorporate accessibility
