Description
What are the net benefits of inclusive design and Accessibility? How can we test with any degree of rigour that the steps we take as designers and developers to make inclusively designed Web sites, applications and interfaces are worthwhile. Also to what degree have our efforts improved the user experience?
Other issues worth discussing are how to measure these benefits.
