"Disability Thematic Network Forum for Inclusion” with the title "Leveraging the European Accessibility Act to promote change"

On 22 June 2016, the European Foundation Centre organised a “Disability Thematic Network Forum for Inclusion” with the title “Leveraging the European Accessibility Act to promote change” in the European Economic and Social Committee (EESC) in Brussels, Belgium. 

Our Executive Director Mark Wheatley attended the conference and got involved in the discussions which focused mainly on the tools around the European Accessibility Act and on how to get the newly proposed legislation to function well. Several speakers took the floor, including Ádám Kósa, a deaf MEP from Hungary. He spoke about the progress made on the European Accessibility Act in the European Parliament. Catherine Naughton, director of the European Disability Forum (EDF), also provided some input. EUD is monitoring developments regarding this act very closely, as an adopted and strongly implemented Accessibility Act would be vital for deaf persons across Europe.

Alle publicaties van 2022 - 2026 worden medegefinancierd door en geproduceerd in het kader van het programma Burgers, gelijkheid, rechten en waarden (CERV) van de Europese Commissie.

De opvattingen en meningen die worden geuit zijn echter uitsluitend die van de auteur(s) en komen niet noodzakelijk overeen met die van de Europese Unie of het CERV-programma van de Europese Commissie. Noch de Europese Unie, noch de steunverlenende autoriteit kunnen daarvoor verantwoordelijk worden gesteld.
