The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) was established in 1994 by Web inventor Tim Berners-Lee, to develop interoperable standards to lead the Web to its full potential.
We are an international multi-stakeholder community where member organizations, a full-time staff, and the public work together to build a Web based on the principles of accessibility, internationalization, privacy and security.
Please be more curious than critical. Your interactions go to real people who care and do their best 🙏
Accessibility: It’s About People! Web Accessibility is about ensuring that digital technology is usable by people with disabilities in the real world. Accessibility is an important aspect of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI).
Many WAI resources cover the organizational, technical, and standards aspects of accessibility. See these WAI resources help you understand the people aspects: https://www.w3.org/WAI/people/
