Due to requests from fellow Local Guides to share previous links to our virtual Meetups especially with invited guests, I am creating this post to keep tab on past, present and future virtual meetups.
If you are looking to reading or listening to some of the experts in accessibility and inclusive design then you are at the right place.
We plan to bring regular virtual meet-up series titled “Accessibility Webinar Series” which is an offshoot of our popular weekly articles Accessibility Uncovered on Connect.
Look out for upcoming webinars on accessibility and disability related topics.
