Organized by Internet Society Hong Kong, and Information Technology Resource of HKCSS , we proudly present our first " Web Accessibility For All" event in Hong Kong. Internet has become a primary way of communicating, distributing information and providing services to the public. Internet is for everyone which includes web accessibility for all people.
