Dear Anivar, Could you please spread the word amongst web designer friends of yours? Regards, Pranesh ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Pranesh Prakash <[email protected]> Date: Wed, May 20, 2009 at 17:51 Subject: [Commons-Law] CIS Workshops | 2nd Workshop on Web Accessibility | Bangalore - June 5-7, 2009 To: Commons Law <[email protected]>, Reader List <[email protected]>, Bytes for All <[email protected]> Dear All, Centre for Internet and Society (CIS) has been a forerunner in advocating for a national policy for electronic and web accessibility for persons with disabilities. In addition to seeking a policy reform in this matter, we are also bolstering our advocacy efforts by organising trainings and workshops at no cost for web developers across the country to spread awareness and build capacity in this area in both the public as well as the private sectors. Our first workshop, which was organised jointly with UN Solution Exchange and supported by the NIXI, took place in Ghaziabad earlier this year. We are organising our second workshop on web accessibility for developers at Bangalore from June 5th-7th, 2009. The workshop will take place at the CIS office on Cunningham Road. Registration is free of charge. If you or any of your colleagues are involved in developing websites and are interested in making your websites accessible to all groups in society, including persons with disabilities (approximately 71 million Indians and 6% of the total world population), please register for this workshop at the earliest. The trainers are experts in this field from Delhi and Bangalore and have been working in the field of accessibility for many years. For more information and registration, please mail Nirmita Narasimhan: [email protected] or call: 080 40926283.
