NVDA provides the context hen you are navigateing through the page
with tab key (or arrow keys).
But some users use the shortcut NVDA key- f7 (I think) to bring up
list of all the links on the page and navigate that way (maybe I am
weird, but I admit I don't like that approach and have never done it).
If you are interacting with that list you don't see any programmatic
context n the page, and the link text has to be sufficiently
descriptive.
Again, as Bim explained so nicely, this is more of an art than science.
