SUMMARY:Game Accessibility Conference (#GAconf)
DESCRIPTION:Chad Leaman\, Neil Squire Director of Innovation\, and Tyler Fentie\, Game Accessibility Lead\, from the Makers Making Change team will be presenting at the 2023 Game Accessibility Conference (#GAconf). This event can be attended virtually or in person. For details on the event\, visit the GAconf website (new window) \nMore information from the GAconf page below: \nGAconf is a professional conference for the games industry\, founded to advance the field of accessibility in game development. \nUnderstanding and implementation of accessibility principles has been growing at an exponential rate\, with every year seeing many more developers making their first forays into the field and may more consolidating and building on past experiences. This makes the conference a perfect opportunity to take stock and exchange experiences and expertise. \nAttendees can expect a wide range of topics from all sectors of the industry – indie to AAA\, academia to accessibility specialists – and leave with inspiration\, new contacts\, and practical knowledge of how to ensure their vision is able to reach as wide a range of players as possible\, so no player is unnecessarily excluded from the access to culture\, recreation and socialising that gaming brings.
