Web AccessibIlity and Site Governance with Drupal

Web AccessibIlity and Site Governance with Drupal

John Lockhart (jwlockhart)

How can we better build and maintain websites with accessibility built-in? This session hopes to explore best practices in accessibility-led website building and maintainance in Drupal.

Prerequisite
This session is open to everyone who is interested in building and maintaining accessible websites in Drupal.

Outline
The W3C Authoring Tool Accessibility Guidelines (ATAG) Standard take a step back from the conversation around creating accessible content and focuses more on making the tools for creating content in the first place more accessible. Drupal supports the W3C ATAG 2.0 Standard, so makes it a natural choice of CMS. How can we ensure that a Drupal website fully meets the goal of ATAG, that the authoring tool creates content more accessible all the way through the content creation workflow.

Learning Objectives
You should learn best practices of planning and creating website publishing experiences in Drupal for accessibility-led websites.
