November 6, 2021 — Comunicare in modo inclusivo significa far capire a tutte le persone che ricevono il nostro messaggio che ci stiamo rivolgendo anche a loro, in modo esplicito. Per questo la conditio sine qua non dell’inclusività, nel mondo digitale, è l’accessibilità.
Dobbiamo assicurarci che il nostro messaggio possa essere ricevuto e compreso da chiunque. Ma per garantire una piena accessibilità non basta implementare una serie di tool sul proprio sito web. Serve conoscerli, ma soprattutto serve conoscere le persone che li utilizzano, e le loro necessità. Lo scopo del talk sarà aprire uno spaccato su questo. Ad esempio, capire cosa sono e come funzionano gli screen reader aiuta a strutturare le proprie piattaforme in modo tale che siano fruibili correttamente da chi li usa. Lo stesso vale per la discromatopsia, la sordità, le neurodivergenze.
Modalità diverse di utilizzare la tecnologia, bisogni diversi da considerare per non escludere nessunə dalla conversazione.
