Towards a More Inclusive Digital Learning Future!

The राष्ट्रीय दृष्टि दिव्यांगजन सशक्तिकरण संस्थान (NIEPVD), Dehradun, in collaboration with the Accessibility Research Centre, IIT Madras, is organising a Southern Zonal Meeting-Cum-Workshop on “Born Accessible Digital Production" focusing on AI Integration & Digital Accessibility in Learning Materials.

📅 21–22 August 2026
📍 IIT Madras, Chennai

The initiative aims to promote the creation of “Born Accessible” digital textbooks —learning materials designed with accessibility built in from the very beginning, rather than being made accessible later.

Key Focus Areas:

• Sensitisation on inclusive digital education
• Strategic importance of Born-Accessible textbook production
• AI integration in textbook production workflows
• Semantic structuring and accessible digital formatting
• Building technical capacity for accessible learning materials

👥 The programme is designed for nominated officials, SCERT faculty, textbook production teams and technical staff from Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Kerala, Tamil Nadu and Telangana.

📌 Day 1 | 21 August: Sensitisation Meeting-Cum-Workshop
📌 Day 2 | 22 August: Hands-on Capacity Building Training

Together, let us work towards equal, accessible and inclusive learning opportunities for every learner.
