These pages offer full details on how we will work towards this goal to make this event safer and more inclusive for all attendees. We are hosting an online relaxed space event and will acknowledge ‘Crip time’ in recognition that disabled, Mad, Deaf, and differently embodied/em-minded people orient to time differently.
We welcome you to come and go from this event as you need.
- All keynotes, panel presentations, and live performances will have ASL and Audio Description interpretation and live captioning.
- ASL and Audio Description interpreters will be present for scheduled portions of Gather Town events. Volunteer sighted guides will also be available.
- An accessibility point person will be available throughout the event who can assist with troubleshooting access issues.
Access requests can be made through the registration process. If you have questions about the accessibility of our event, platforms, and presentations, need assistance with access, want an accommodation that isn’t yet set up, or you would prefer to discuss your request with a member of our team, please reach out to Marnie Eves or Jodie Salter at revision@uoguelph.ca.
