Hello,
With this charter review notice, the W3C Team initiates refinement for a
draft Accessibility Guidelines Working Group charter:
https://w3c.github.io/charter-drafts/2025/ag-wg.html
The mission of the Accessibility Guidelines Working Group (AGWG) is to
develop specifications to support making implementations of web
technologies accessible for people with disabilities, and to develop and
maintain implementation support materials.
We encourage early discussion of this draft charter in this public forum:
https://github.com/w3c/strategy/issues/508
W3C Members may discuss on the member-confidential mailing list
<w3c-ac-forum@w3.org>.
Section 4.2 of the Process Document [1] describes activities during
charter refinement and the role of the Chartering Facilitator to seek
consensus among those who provide feedback about the charter.
The W3C Team estimates that this charter refinement will last until
approximately 2026-03-20.
If you should have any questions or need further information, please
feel free to contact the Chartering Facilitator, Kevin White <kevin@w3.org>.
