ANEC was delighted to moderate a panel at the Microsoft Accessibility Summit 2024, titled “Reflecting on accessibility achievements & the road ahead in the next 5 years”. The panel was moderated by Chiara Giovannini, Deputy Director-General and Senior Manager Policy and Innovation at ANEC.
Ms Giovannini led a group of experts in a thorough discussion about past successes and future goals in accessibility. Each panellist shared a personal victory in accessibility, offering insights into why these milestones were particularly meaningful to them. Their stories not only highlighted the progress made but also underlined the ongoing commitment needed to further inclusivity.
The discussion then moved to the enforcement and implementation of accessibility measures, the integration of accessibility into public procurement, and the importance of disseminating knowledge through training and standardization.
