Request for reasonable accommodation for information security in event planning

The Convention aims to ensure that all participants mutually respect each other’s personality and individuality and that information is provided to everyone, irrespective of the presence of a disability.

Therefore, we would appreciate your cooperation in making reasonable accommodations for participants with disabilities to the extent possible in the preparation of posters, videos, and other materials. In particular, we would like to indicate in the program if it is possible to insert subtitles for on-demand videos.

<Reference>

 

The following are examples of reasonable accommodations for participants with disabilities. We sincerely appreciate your cooperation.

  • Adding subtitles to your video (subtitles can be inserted using a video sharing and streaming platform or free subtitling software).
  • In screen-sharing materials, using more text information so that the audience can follow what the speaker is saying, rather than using independent key words. Text information is easier to understand than a series of key words
  • Speaking slowly and clearly, and adding verbal explanations to charts and graphs when presenting them.
  • Be aware of color schemes for people with color vision variation (go to the “Review” tab and click on the “Check Accessibility” button of the PowerPoint presentation). Use a green laser pointer rather than red if possible.
