Friends of Figma: Accessibility and Inclusivity in Design

Long a matter of lip service, accessibility in design is of paramount importance. While most designers agree that technologies should adapt to mirror the diversity of their users, there’s much confusion about what it means to make something accessible. Does following the WCAG suffice? Is accessible design also inclusive? Can current design technologies accommodate multiple languages and alphabets at scale? These are some of the questions we’ll tackle at the next sessions of Friends of Figma Denver.

We’ll start the evening with a panel discussion on the state of accessibility and inclusivity in design. After a brief QA, a few panelists will show how they’ve made their designs more inclusive by using Figma.

Join us for an evening of thought-provoking discussion and hands-on learning.
