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 🙏
To achieve our vision to make the web work, for everyone, W3C upholds the following core values:
The web is for all humanity. The web is designed for the good of its users. The web must be safe for its users. There is one interoperable world-wide web.
