When Accessibility Becomes an Obstacle Race This image—it speaks louder than words. A banner hangs high, "The Daily Paralympics Start." But look closer, really look. This is not a celebration of accessibility; it's a stark depiction of our everyday reality. An elevator marked

Well done Apple for not exploiting but rather tapping into the passion of sport. It's admirable how you see the value in marketing to people with disabilities as a sizeable market to go after. youtu.be/BPqir3EZolw?si… #Apple #Marketing #Inclusion

Designing for #accessibility does not come at the cost of creativity. Creativity is brought out when designing for accessibility. How creative are you? #Design #a11y #Product #Creative

"Special” needs? Let’s be honest—it’s just a polite way of saying “not included.” We label disabled people and their needs as "special" to feel better about a world that isn’t inclusive. It sounds like a compliment, but it’s a convenient way to dodge responsibility. The term
