Diversity and the Web


Author: Laurie Vasquez, Assistive Technology Specialist

"The power of the Web is in its universality. Access by everyone regardless of disability is an essential aspect."
-- Tim Berners-Lee, W3C Director and inventor of the World Wide Web

Diversity embodies the "alchemy of we" as put forth in Art of Possibility, by Asarmend Zander. It forces us to focus on the endless possibilities that exist in an individual by looking beyond differences.
