Danish authorized translation of WCAG 2.1

Dear W3C

On behalf of The Danish Digitization Agency, I hereby inform the W3C that we have the intention of becoming the LTO for developing an authorized Danish translation of WCAG 2.1.

An early first draft translation will be performed in close cooperation with stakeholder such as

  *   Danish Association of the Physically Disabled (Address: Blekinge Boulevard 2,  DK-2630 Taastrup/ https://danskhandicapforbund.dk/en/#gsc.tab=0)
  *   Siteimprove (Sankt Annæ Plads 28, DK-1250 København, Danmark/ https://siteimprove.com/))
  *   Diversa (Adress: Eliasgade 4, 2.th, DK - 2300 København S/ https://www.diversa.dk/)
  *   Netvenlig (Adress: Mathilde Parken 21, st. 4, DK - 3400 Hillerød/ https://netvenlig.dk/)


Denmark has an extensive network of Web Accessibility, which all have been invited to join the translation, but most of them are waiting for a first draft, so they have something more concrete to comment on. We will on an early stage notify the various stakeholders that a first draft is being sent out in the near future, so they are prepared to comment on this, before the 30 day consultation period. I am confident that the consultation period will give the various stakeholders, such as various interest groups, "Local Government Denmark (Kommunernes Landsforening)", "The Danish Regions(Danske Regioner)", "The Danish IT Industry Association (IT-branchen)", etc. , from which we normally have a close cooperation with - the necessary possibility to get involved if they wish to do so, and thereby to ensure a broad consensus and needed acceptance. In the final translated edition, we will be sure to record which organization have participated/given the acceptance in the process

We are looking forward to hearing from you

Very best regards
