Thanks for contributing to the event! We are happy you enjoyed it and look forward to meeting you again :)
So happy to have had the opportunity to join IAAP EU’s and European Disability Forum’s Celebration of the web accessibility directive’s fourth anniversary in Brussels yesterday ⭐️ Some of my favourite moments were: - Daniele Tabellini’s presentation regarding their work with accessible design systems in the Italian public sector. - Bart Declercq talking about their experience with creating an internal accessibility desk in their company. - Panel discussion with Corbb O'Connor, Malin Hammarberg and Zsanett Ashu-Miskolczi, who shared their experiences with accessibility testing tools. I had an amazing time and I look forward to more events in the future!

Daniel Travaglia and I have just returned from the "Fourth Anniversary of the Web Accessibility Directive" event organized in Brussels by the European Disability Forum and the IAAP - International Association of Accessibility Professionals. It has been awesome 😍 A heartfelt thanks to the sponsors, organizers and panelists for the topics covered, the expertise of the interventions, and the wide range of subjects discussed. I greatly appreciated the input from people working in different contexts: those in professional services (like us at AnswerConsulting SA!), those from regulatory bodies, academia, software houses, standards contributors, system testers, and those who, with or without disabilities, use these systems. It was fascinating to see how Microsoft, Google, and Adobe are addressing the issue, as well as understanding the differences and practices of regulatory bodies across various European member states 🌍 I must say that my expectations for the event were more than exceeded, and I return home with a wealth of knowledge, new connections, and significant personal enrichment, which I will make available to my current and future clients. A special thanks to the speakers and panelists, your presentations, time, and contributions definitely made a difference: June Lowery-Kingston Alejandro Moledo del Río Susanna Laurin Bart Declercq Daniele Tabellini Ronald Maier Detlev Fischer Péter Kemény Ibrahim Tamditi Pietro Cirrincione Rui Coimbras Jon Gibbins Paul van Workum Harri Puskar Jeroen Hulscher Christopher Patnoe Hector Minto Rob Haverty Shilpi Kapoor Corbb O'Connor Malin Hammarberg Zsanett Ashu-Miskolczi Catherine Naughton Monica DUHEM Ina (Radostina) Tsvetkova Moïse Akbaraly Nadia Törnroos

Yesterday, I attended a accessibility event, a conference day to celebrate the 4th anniversary of the Web Accessibility Directive (WAD) in Brussels, alongside IAAP EU and the European Disability Forum (EDF). It was an extremely enriching and inspiring day. In-depth discussions on various aspects of the EN 301 549 standards were addressed. From this day, I take away and conclude the critical importance of uniting forces among different countries, stimulating exchanges, and building collective synergy. Such joint efforts are essential for progressing in a unified manner at the European level, ensuring that disability and digital accessibility are integrated into all our initiatives, coherently converging towards a more inclusive and accessible society for all. I want to extend a big thank you to all the speakers and the organizers for bringing this event to life. Listening to you has given me even more enthusiasm and strength to continue working on this topic. Thank you very much to : IAAP EU, European Disability Forum, G3ict - The Global Initiative for Inclusive ICTs, Susanna Laurin ,June Lowery-Kingston, Catherine Naughton, Bart Declercq, Daniele Tabellini, Ronald Maier, Detlev Fischer, Peter Kemeny, Ibrahim Tamditi, Pietro Cirrincione, Rui Coimbras, Jon Gibbins, Paul van Workum, Harri Puskar, Christopher Patnoe, Hector Minto, Rob Haverty, Shilpi Kapoor, Corbb O'Connor, Malin Hammarberg, Zsanett Ashu-Miskolczi, Alejandro Moledo del Río, Christopher Michael Lee, Ina (Radostina) Tsvetkova, Moïse Akbaraly, Nadia Törnroos, Monica DUHEM
