In our opinion, poverty is the main reason for hunger, weather is it poverty of an individual or of a whole nation. In developing countries, governments can’t afford to support those in need for food and water and in developed countries there are some individuals who can’t afford their need due to lack of education which caused them to be unable to look for a source of income.
Natural disasters can cause poverty too. Governments should be able to provide shelter and food for those people who their houses and belongings were destroyed by natural disasters.

Policy Driven Adoption of Accessibility - CSUN 2013Jonathan Hassell
Recent G3ict and US government reports suggest that current our models for encouraging ICT accessibility adoption are not working. Using examples from the UK, Canada's AODA, and the State of Texas, in this CSUN 2013 presentation Jeff Kline and Jonathan Hassell discuss whether a Policy-Driven Adoption approach might help.
Presentation given by Jonathan Hassell (Head of Audience Experience & Usability) and Robin Christopherson (Head of Accessibility Services, AbilityNet) at Internet 2010, London in 2010.
Covers: how many people in the UK are still unconnected from the internet, and how 25% fewer disabled people are using the internet than the general population; what the reasons for this lag in usage by disabled people might be (and definitely are not); how use of assistive technologies in the UK is much lower than the expected percentages (from Microsoft Forrester research in 2003); how My Web My Way (bbc.co.uk/accessibility) provides information on assistive technologies and browser/OS accessibility settings to help disabled people; how website personalisation technologies can help all users (no matter how contradictory their needs) get a better user-experience; how the BBC ATK is aiming to provide these features on bbc.co.uk
Here is a presentation I gave on May the 19th for Product Crunch Berlin (Accessibility edition). The transcript has been made accessible. The recording should be available soon.
Enjoy.

Disability Inclusion in the workplace allows organisations to play a leading role in changing attitudes for the better. They change behaviour and culture in their own businesses, networks and communities. If a business is confident on the subject of disability, it attracts a diverse workforce; it increases workplace productivity; it improves its customer experience hugely; it innovates. Learn how and why to embrace disability as talent.
Reflections on building a Multi-country AAC Implementation Guide.pptxE.A. Draffan
UNICEF with the Global Symbols team supported by local professionals working with
AAC users, their families and carers set out to collaboratively provide an implementation guide based on their experiences in several Eastern European countries. The aim
of the guide was to illustrate work already being undertaken in the area and to ensure the sharing of knowledge
and resources where gaps were discovered.

This presentation explores the way Ai could support the generation of AAC symbols. It was a small six-month pilot study to adapt a number of open licensed symbols based on the symbol set’s original style. Once a collection has been automatically developed from image to image and text descriptions, potential stakeholders will evaluate the outcomes using an online voting system.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

5. Easy to read? Statistics
Over 10 million disabled people in Britain, of
whom 5 million are over state pension age.
Disability increases with age: 10% of adults 16-
24yrs are disabled, 33% between 50 - 65yrs are
disabled.
By 2020 58% of people over the age of 50 will have
a long term health condition.
The World Health Organisation predicts that
depression will be the leading cause of disability
by 2020.
7. Definition of a disabled person?
“You’re disabled under the Equality Act 2010 if
you have a physical or mental impairment that
has a ‘substantial’ and ‘long-term’ negative
effect on your ability to do normal daily
activities.” https://
www.gov.uk/definition-of-disability-under-equality-act-201
(The Equality Act 2010 doesn’t apply to
Northern Ireland)

8. Disability Rights
As a disabled person, you have rights to
protect you from discrimination. These
rights cover most areas including:
•employment
•education
•dealing with the police
The Equality Act 2010 and the United
Nations (UN) Convention on
disability rights help to enforce, protect http://www.flickr.com/photos/rockinpaddy/5
(CC)
and promote your rights.
9. Reasonable Adjustments?
• Sections 20 and 29(7) of the Equality Act create
and elaborate a duty for service providers to
make "reasonable adjustments" to enable
disabled persons to access their services. Section
20(6) says that with respect to services relating to
the provision of information:
“the steps which it is reasonable for [an information
service provider] to have to take include steps for
ensuring that in the circumstances concerned the
information is provided in an accessible format.”
http

10. Auxiliary aids and services to be
included in pre-16 education
provisions
From 1st September 2012 schools and LEAs have
a duty to provide an auxiliary aid or service
where reasonable. Previously, the reasonable
adjustment duty for auxiliary aids and services
did not apply to the pre-16 education provisions.

16. Perceptions
“There is still a perception that disabled people are
incapable and uninterested in using ICT and therefore
there is no point in making it easy for them to use.
Hopefully one of the legacies of the paralympics is that
people with disabilities will now be seen as capable and
keen to do everything and no barrier
should be put in their way.”

What ‘substantial’ and ‘long-term’ mean ‘ substantial’ is more than minor or trivial - eg it takes much longer than it usually would to complete a daily task like getting dressed ‘ long-term’ means 12 months or more - eg a breathing condition that develops as a result of a lung infection There are special rules about recurring or fluctuating conditions, for example, arthritis. For more details about the special rules download the ‘Equality Act Guidance’. Download ‘Equality Act Guidance’ (PDF, 789KB) Progressive conditions A progressive condition is a condition that gets worse over time. People with progressive conditions can be classed as disabled. However, you automatically meet the disability definition under the Equality Act 2010 from the day you’re diagnosed with HIV infection, cancer or multiple sclerosis. What isn’t counted as a disability Some conditions aren’t covered by the disability definition. These include addiction to non–prescribed drugs or alcohol. To find out about the conditions which aren’t covered, download the ‘Equality Act Guidance’. Download ‘Equality Act Guidance’ (PDF, 789KB)
Can you ever treat a disabled person less favourably? The Equality Act 2010 recognises that in a limited number of circumstances it is not always possible to give disabled people exactly the same service as other people. Less favourable treatment may be possible if the service provider believes that one of the following circumstances applies; -Where the treatment is necessary in order to avoid endangering the health or safety of any person. -Where the disabled person is incapable of entering into a legally enforceable agreement or of giving informed consent. - If you would otherwise be unable to provide the service to the disabled person or other members of the public. -Where greater expense is involved in providing a special service for a disabled customer. -When an adjustment would fundamentally alter the nature of a business or service. Code of Practice on employment http://www.drc-gb.org/whatwedo/publicationdetails.asp?id=227&section=2&all=1 With grateful thanks to the DRC for the picture on this slide.
The Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) does not apply specifically to education, but contains references to service provision, which could relate to making content accessible in learning environments. It states that: A service provider must not discriminate against a disabled person by refusing to provide that service if it is already provided to the public, or by making it impossible or unreasonably difficult for a disabled person to make use of any service. (Services covered by the Act include: access to and use of means of communication, or information services). Where a service provider has a practice, policy or procedure which makes it impossible or unreasonably difficult for a disabled person to make use of that service, reasonable steps should be taken in order to change that practice, policy or procedure so that it no longer has that effect. Reasonable steps should be taken to provide auxiliary aids, such as provision of information on an audio tape, or a sign language interpreter.
