Description: Algorithms, monitoring systems, websites – these are just a few examples of technology that can prove discriminatory against people with disabilities when access and inclusion are left to the wayside. Still, technology informs our future, and disabled people – like all people – need technology to survive and thrive. Join us as we discuss common technological barriers currently facing the disability community, and ways to dismantle these barriers.
