Agenda:
7:30 am – 8 am ET: Microsoft Fireside Chat
8 am – 9 am ET: EMEA Accessibility Webinar
The European Union and its Member States are committed to ensuring the rights of persons with disabilities to access information and communication technologies, as well as the physical environment, on an equal basis with everyone. However, not everyone has equal access to these opportunities, and there are still many barriers and challenges to overcome.
Learn how leading companies in the EMEA region are breaking down these barriers for their employees, customers, and broader society. Gain an understanding of how disability is viewed, understand stigmas and how these leaders are working to change the definition of disability. This webinar will feature panelists who live and work in the EMEA region who will share their lived experience with disability directly, indirectly or as an ally in this region.
