Wednesday, 3 April 2024, 11:30am to 13h00 (CEST), online
We are pleased to invite you to the ANEC/AccessibleEU webinar on 3 April 2024 from 11h30 to 13h00 (CEST) on the key standardisation works related to accessibility, and on the role ANEC and AccessibleEU play in shaping accessible standards.
It is a basic consumer right to have access to products and services. The European Accessibility Act (Directive 2019/882) is a landmark EU law which requires several consumer products and services to be accessible for persons with disabilities. As of 28 June 2025, companies must ensure that the newly marketed products and services covered by the Act are accessible.
Harmonised Standards have to be drafted on access to public transport, banking services, computers, TVs, e-books, online shops, and much more.
ANEC, together with the AccessibleEU, one of the flagship initiatives of the European Commission Strategy for the Rights of Persons with Disabilities 2021-2030, is organising a webinar to present the state of play of the current standardisation activities and discuss how consumers and persons with disabilities can make accessible products and services with standards.
Come and join us on Wednesday, 3 April, 2024 from 11h to 13h00 (CEST).
This free workshop and mutual learning session will be in English with captioning in English and international sign system (ISS).
