" Accessibility for disabilities is often overlooked. I started to become aware of the difficulties of using websites that has very little accessibility features implemented this summer when I was trying to navigate a website using the keyboard only. I can imagine the predicament that someone with disabilities is in when there is little accessibility features in things that our society build. This motivates me hear the stories of student with disabilities and help them to improve the accessibility in my university campus. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Progress For Access
Project for Access is an initiative that aims to increase accessibility in Trinity College's student societies. With knowledge and feedback from disabled students, we crafted a tailored workshop for student societies that covered accessible information, venues and activities. We hope that implementation of our recommended strategies will make it easier for disabled students to participate in societies, and give them the opportunities they are entitled to.
