Access Advisors | Pan-Disability Accessible Webinar Series

PROBLEM

The challenge was to present a series of seven webinars which were fully inclusive and accessible to people with disabilities. This involved working with multiple event partners, a blind facilitator, four speakers with access needs, NZSL sign language interpreters, and a team of live captioners. In addition, the event was live streamed by our event partners.
