The W3C Australian Chapter invites you to a special morning event featuring guest speaker Dr. Jason White, Chair of the W3C’s Research Questions Task Force (RQTF).

As technology advances at a rapid pace, ensuring emerging tools, standards, and digital environments remain accessible to people with disabilities is both a critical necessity and a complex challenge. In his talk, "Challenges at the Technology and Disability Intersection," Dr. White will explore the key research, technological shifts, and accessibility considerations shaping the future of the Web and digital platforms.
