We owe it, as the friendliest CMS and community in the world, to ensure everyone can use our services. As well as being a legal requirement or need for some sectors, it is also the right thing to do.

Following from the EU-commissioned We4Authors cluster, when many CMS venders came together to empower editors, we must ensure the work continues. In this talk, we will explore making the Umbraco back office accessible by further dissecting the lessons taken from the cluster and reiterating the importance of creating these features that will allow us to elevate our platforms’ accessibility.

We will also examine the current Authoring Tools Accessibility Guidelines (ATAG) and see how we can come together as a community to make a meaningful and impactful difference to the web and our users.
