I have created a list of ten organizations that promote Web accessibility for people with cognitive disabilities. Of those in the list, the following are a few I believe have recently engaged in related activities (guidelines publication, Web site creation, conference presentations, training provision, etc.).
Organizations Recently Active
- ArcLink (United States)
- eGovernment Resource Centre (Australia)
- Mencap (England)
- Rix Centre (England)
- WebAIM (United States)
Notes
- If you know of an organization not included in the list of ten, please create a comment that includes the organization’s Web address.
- I plan to expand the list of promoters to include individuals. That will be the subject of a future blog post.
For what it’S worth, if you’re interested in non-english speaking organizations as well, we at AccessibilitéWeb (www.accessibiliteweb.com) have developed some expertise in cognitive disabilites by recruiting a cognitive ergonomics expert and by training him in web accessibility. This resource can therefore apply WCAG requirements in his every day job, but with a special focus on cognitive disability best practices.
Thank you, Denis, for your comment.
Yes, I am interested in any organization, regardless of language, that promotes cognitive Web accessibility.
I am delighted that AccessibilitéWeb has developed relevant expertise. I would love to learn more about that.
For some time now, I have been aware of your interest in this area. I appreciate it and your related efforts.
so close to this particular topic love it !
Seems like the ArcLink is closing down (or has already closed down. . .).
