Does anyone in the audience today have examples of accessibility user testing programs / projects that you've established, worked on or heard of that is highly inclusive of Disabled perspectives? What challenges and/or opportunities have you experienced in implementing digital accessibility change-management (processes, procedures, policies) within your institution?
