Accessibility Internationalization Community Group

The mission of the Accessibility Internationalization Community Group is to improve the internationalization of:

  • The Cognitive and Learning Disabilities Accessibility (COGA) Task Force
  • The Accessibility Guidelines Working Group (AG)

Scope The Accessibility Internationalization Community Group will include the following efforts:

  • Improve the internationalization of COGA and AG publications.
  • Develop criteria and tests for easy-to-understand language in different languages.
  • Develop criteria and tests for text appearance and semantics in different writing systems
  • Develop criteria and tests for additional guidance that changes based on additional language, writing system, or culture.

The community group’s initial focus is to help internationalize two accessibility resources that are currently in development:

  • The next version of Making Content Usable for People with Cognitive and Learning Disabilities
  • WCAG 3.0, with two guidelines as the top priorities: “Clear Language” and “Text Appearance and Semantics,” which will have tests and criteria in different languages.
