Specific Goal Recommendations
- Create ongoing list of events, presentations, tangible successes, and recruitment efforts
- Encourage ICANN staff visually/hearing/mobility impaired employees to lead by example
- Use Singapore meeting to plan and obtain specifics for next ICANN meetings
- Plan to have a presentation on blind use of the Internet in London (Keynote) - Coordinate with EURALO and Staff to make this happen. This should be a community-wide event and not just At-Large
- Plan to have Ken Harrenstien present in Los Angeles (Keynote). Ken was one of the original ARPANET architects and is deaf.
- Have a specific accessibility event scheduled for every ICANN meeting in advance until the subject is part of the ordinary agenda
- Ensure video recorded ICANN meetings have closed captions
Action Items
- @at-large staff: check request with Steve Crocker to invite Ken Harrenstien to present at Los Angeles meeting
- @at-large staff: Please coordinate to locate an expert user on technology for the blind to present in London
