Promoting inclusion for Persons with Disabilities

Welcome to Internet Society Accessibility Standing Group!

Standing Group is an opportunity for Internet Society members to collaborate on and find solutions for topics of interest that are not necessarily addressed directly by the projects under the Internet Society Action Plan. The Internet Society Accessibility Standing Group was formed on November 1 2021, subsequent to ISOC's plan to de-charter existing Special Interest Groups. While the new SIGs are temporary and project-based, both Accessibility and Youth, as Standing Groups, are permanent. The ASG was Formally welcomed by the Internet Society BoT Chair Ted Hardie on * March 31 2022

The former Accessibility SIG was de-chartered, and reverted to its origin as an "Internet Society New York Chapter" project, in a supporting role to the new Standing Group, as well as other activities.
