What is the AccessAbility Moments Campaign?

The campaign was designed to highlight best accessibility practices implemented by members of the Carleton community across campus.

Students, staff, faculty and visitors address disability-related barriers every day to make courses, services and the workplace more accessible and inclusive. We are proud of our culture of accessibility, which is fostered by learning from one another, sharing resources and incorporating solutions based on real-time feedback.

See below how the community is applying innovative accessibility best practices on campus in the AccessAbility Moments Catalogue.
