Talk abstract:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You already know your readers are all different. We all have natural differences in our brains or find ourselves in different situations that impact how we access, read, and understand information. How can you make conscious decisions that help you provide access for everyone to your words?

Sarah Pulis from Intopia will talk about some of the bigger decisions you might be faced with, such as formats and platforms, and the smaller things you can do straight away to make your content more accessible for everyone.

About the speaker:
