RIoT 50: Examining Accessibility Through Two Lenses

February 23, 2021 @ 4:30 pm - 6:00 pm

RIoT tackles the challenges of DEI, hosting leading experts to examine tech accessibility through two social justice lenses: tech access limited by location, race, and income and tech access limited by physical and cognitive disabilities.

2020 brought deep-seated equity and inclusion issues to the forefront. If you haven’t yet committed to exercising DEI principles across your organization, 2021 can and should be the year to firmly commit to putting these principles into practice in your organization.

What does accessibility and inclusion look like through a digital lens? It looks like access to broadband and technology resources regardless of race, income or location. It looks like website features that enable people with disabilities and impairments to easily use electronic devices and access digital content. It looks like governments and organizations coming together to ensure everyone has the tools to succeed.

Join RIoT and The Diversity Movement on Tuesday, February 23rd, at 4:30 PM ET to learn how to help drive the tech industry’s forward progression.
