Navigation around sites can be complex, presenting barriers for people who struggle to understand the visual layout, or terminology that a site uses. However, there are several key sections or pages that can be found across many sites. The WAI-Adapt Task Force is exploring an approach (pending review) to address these barriers.

This session introduces the problem, shows how we envisage the solution working, from the user's perspective - via a demo of an interactive browser extension - and describes our proposed approach, in order to answer your questions, and gather informal feedback before we apply for horizontal and wide review from the community.
