Hackforge Unveils Programming Schedule for AccessAbility Week

Windsor Hackforge has announced a series of free events in celebration of National AccessAbility Week, which runs from May 25 to 31. This annual observance in Canada recognizes the contributions of individuals with disabilities and emphasizes the ongoing efforts to create an accessible and inclusive society.

The event schedule is available on Hackforge’s events calendar and features a variety of interactive workshops, lectures, and discussions. Key topics include equitable and inclusive artificial intelligence, assistive reading technology, and interventions in the labor market. Featured speakers will include notable figures such as Dr. Jutta Treviranus, Ioana Gandrabur, and David Best, who bring insights from Windsor-Essex and beyond.

To enhance accessibility, many of the events will be held online. This aligns with Hackforge's commitment to ensuring that their programming remains free and open for all attendees. The initiative aims to foster dialogue and education around the importance of accessibility in various domains, contributing to a larger conversation about inclusion and equity in society.
