This International Day of People with Disabilities, we want to highlight our amazing community and how you live the theme of this year's #IDPwD "Amplifying the leadership of persons with disabilities for an inclusive and sustainable future"

We have just put out a blog post; every piece talks about how you, our community are empowered to take on leadership in your lives, your work, and your #ScreenReader, #NVDA - check it out here:

It's #IDPwD 2022! That's the International Day of Persons with Disability. The theme this year is ‘Transformative solutions for inclusive development: the role of innovation in fuelling an accessible and equitable world’.

Here's a couple of practical things you can do today:
- Use alt text in your images
- Politely inform others of the importance of alt text
- Test your content with a screen reader (we recommend the free NVDA!)

📣 On International Day of People with Disabilities, we strengthen our community's resolve to be inclusive for all, and add the following item to our Code of Conduct under behaviors not allowed:

➡️ "Uploading images, audio, or video with Public visibility (appears on Local or Federated timelines) without adding ALT text media descriptions"

⚠️ Effective 1 January, such items may be removed, limited, or other actions taken. We will continue to highlight them as a reminder.
