Accessibility Walk as a meetup type

 

  • Please, I would love to see Accessibility Walk as an option while organizing a meet up. This would encourage more meet ups tailored for this cause.

Hello, dear Local Guides team and my fellows! Day by day Connect is going higher. There are so many types of Local Guides activities we have done before and hope it will continue. One of the best activity of Local Guides is hosting Meet Up. We have some types of Meet Up and these are so popular among us. These are -

  • Food crawl
  • Photo walk
  • Geo walk
  • Map editing
  • Others

These are well and perfect. Nowadays Local Guides around the world hosting so many accessibilities meet-Ups to update accessibility questions on Maps.  These are so important and useful meet up which is related to helping disabled people with Google. I think this type of Meet -Up is a bit different from others Meet Ups.

So my request is to add another Meet Up type/ Category to encourage more Local Guides to host more accessibility Meet-Up. This Meet-Up type would be named as Accessibility Meet-Up/ Accessibility Walk.

Hope my fellows and honorable Connect team consider this idea.

Lets Map Accessibility ...

Happy Guiding!

Hi @ShafiulB,

Thank you for your idea.

 

Please note that a similar idea already exists - Accessibility Walk as a meetup type. That is why I'm going to merge yours to it. 

 

I just recommend you before you submitt an idea to search the community. It’s possible that someone else has already submitted the same one, so you can show your support by voting for that idea.

Several meet-ups that LGs are hosting now are about accessibility and environement.

It would be great to have the two categories added to the list of availables meet-ups, to avoid to choose "other" as a category for so important type of meet-ups
