Inclusive Design 24 Returns September 17, 2020: Call for Speakers

Inclusive Design 24, the free virtual event about inclusive design and accessibility, returns September 17, 2020 for the eighth edition of the popular conference.

For 24 hours, accessibility experts and advocates from around the world will share their work, knowledge, and experiences with inclusive design and accessibility.

No matter your involvement with web design and development, you’ll find actionable advice for incorporating inclusive design in your projects.

About Inclusive Design 24

Since 2014, Inclusive Design 24 (ID24) has offered 24 hours of non-stop talks and discussions about inclusive design and accessibility.

At no cost to attendees.

From this year’s website:

It celebrates inclusive design and shares knowledge and ideas from analogue to digital, from design to development, from planners to practitioners, and everything and everyone in between.

No registration is required.

Attend the sessions that fit in your schedule. And if you can’t make it one of the sessions, watch the captioned recording after the event.
