Global Accessibility Awareness Day (IDEA)

When:  May 20, 2021 from 12:00 PM to 01:30 PM (ET)

Join us for a detailed discussion on accessibility and fundraising. Global Accessibility Awareness Day is a day focusing on digital access and inclusion for the more than one billion people with disabilities and impairments. It is marked annually on the third Thursday of May. The purpose of GAAD is to get everyone talking, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion. This event will explore what it means to be more accessible for industry professionals and the constituents we serve both in a digital and a physical capacity. It is our hope that participants will learn to identify barriers and problem solve efficient and effective solutions to help make our industry a better place for people of all abilities.
