Guide to Planning Inclusive Meetings

This pdf guide is to help organize meetings that are inclusive. An area often overlooked by meeting planners, or dismissed as too difficult, is how to make a meeting accessible for people with disabilities. By considering accessibility as part of the planning process, you ensure that everyone can participate and be involved, which means a successful meeting. The guide includes a useful checklist, resources, and a glossary.

This document provides several helpful suggestions and action items necessary to plan an inclusive meeting. However, I found the document long and wordy. Additionally, it would have been helpful to suggest alternatives as some of the action items seemed difficult to implement quickly. The link on the Access-ed website did not link directly to the document, which made the resource difficult to find.

New information and communications technologies can improve the quality of life for people with disabilities, but only if such technologies are designed from the beginning so that everyone can use them. Given the explosive growth in the use of the World Wide Web for publishing, electronic commerce, lifelong learning and the delivery of government services, it is vital that the Web be accessible to everyone.
