DESCRIPTION:https://www.w3.org/events/meetings/89a19590-3b11-41d1-8129-c03c
 870f6c29/\n\nThe background and a demonstration of the WAI-Adapt Symbols M
 odule\, the inaugural segment of the broader WAI-Adapt technical specifica
 tion. This module offers markup for symbols based on underlying semantics 
 such as "food" or "help." Users can enjoy personalized web content\, with 
 symbols rendered in their own preferred visual language. This is the first
  semantics codified for such symbols\, allowing for the diversity in symbo
 l choices across different institutions\, regions\, and cultures. A notabl
 e application is in video chapter headings\, facilitating at-a-glance acce
 ss. The result will likely benefit people of all types of abilities\, incl
 uding people with cognitive disabilities\, AAC symbol users and a general 
 audience alike\, as the symbols enhance readability.\n\nAgenda\n\n**Chairs
