The White House has invited Judy Brewer, Director of the Web
Accessibility Initiative (WIA) of the World Wide Web
Consortium (W3C), to speak at its Digital Divide Event on
Accessible Technologies on 21st October 2000 in Flint,
Michigan.
</p>
<p>
Ms. Brewer is presenting on issues regarding accessibility
of the Web for people with disabilities, highlighting
solutions developed by WIA to produce a Web that is more
usable by all. "WIA works by bringing together industry,
disability organizations, accessibility researchers, and
government," explained Brewer. "We can show that accessible
design is not only possible; but is also good design, and
well within reach of all Web content publishers."
</p>
<p>
WIA's achievements include the development of guidelines for
the creation of Web content that can be accessed by any
user, regardless of disability, as well as guidelines for
the production of software that makes it easier to produce
accessible Web content automatically. The Web Content
Accessibility Guidelines serve as a definitive resource for
Web designers to produce sites that work for the widest
possible audience, and have received international
endorsement.
