AccessibleEU Portugal - European Accessibility Act: From theory to practice (25-WS-PT-01)

This workshop will explore the implications and implementation of the European Accessibility Act. This crucial directive aims to make a wide range of products and services more accessible for persons with disabilities across the EU.

This AccessibleEU workshop, co-organised with Morais Leitão, Associação Portuguesa de Deficientes and Associação Salvador, brings together key stakeholders for a comprehensive discussion on the Act's impact, practical challenges, and the opportunities it presents for a more inclusive society.

This is a workshop for businesses, policymakers, accessibility professionals, and anyone interested in fostering a truly accessible Europe as we explore different approaches to the implementation and key questions about how to do it in practice.
