Thanks for this. I'm giving a presentation next week to some undergraduate students all about accessibility. I'm actually co-presenting with someone, and we already gave the students a pre-assignment on the meaning of accessibility which they are to complete for this presentation. I am also going to mention GAAD for 2015.

The fourth Global Accessibility Awareness Day (GAAD) is May 21.
Planning (or thinking about planning) an event in your city or a
virtual event open to the public? Marking GAAD internally at your
company, organization, or school? eMail us details at
globala11yawarenessday at gmail.com. Remember, events do not have to
be large and elaborate. The point is to get people who are not
ordinarily thinking about digital accessibility, to talk or get
exposed to some aspect of it at some point on May 21.

Visit www.globalaccessibilityawarenessday.org and browse the Events
and Other Activities sections for ideas and inspiration from years
past.

On May 21, let's take time out of our day to learn about, discuss or
experience digital accessibility issues impacting people with
disabilities.

Like GAAD on Facebook www.facebook.com/globalaccessibilityawarenessday
and follow us on Twitter via @gbla11yday.
