Hi Cybele, I’m not responsible for the Equity group. I’ve included Jeanne Spellman, one of the WCAG3 editors for guidance.

I sent a private message to Jennifer since the Zoom call doesn't have a secure page yet that can be shared.

Hi Jeanne,
Is it possible for me to get a meeting invite for the Equity group?
I know I won’t be able to attend next week as I will be traveling for work.
Thanks,
Jennifer

Subject: [EXT] [Equity] Minutes of the WCAG3 Equity meeting of 25 July 2022

== Summary ==

  1.  We gathered thoughts from the homework assignment to review the research and prototype documentation<https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1hm68EMWdL3KT85vy3VoJ_w7f5mWeAwfeON8ZFgghpvY/>. This discussion centered around the complexities of any equity solution.  We discussed the need for language and culture complexities in the guidance.  WCAG3 at first release must have some visible improvement in equity over WCAG2 and must have a process for improving equity.
  2.  We worked on the definition of equity and started developing use cases<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1esfSksGbTYTwdk0QI3fR5wsd7_9Boa9Gkv5dY-rj7pM/edit#heading=h.kgfso9bpb84i>.  We discussed the difference between equity and equal and found it useful to look at the mathematical differences.  Webster definition of "Fairness and justice in the way people are treated".  We know that these concepts are not absolutes and are shaped by individual worldview, culture, and experiences.  How can we deal with that in a standards environment?  We started listing use cases to capture some of the complexities.
  3.  We started moving some of the discussion into a draft report wiki page<https://github.com/w3c/silver/wiki/Equity-Framework>.  We will be working to polish and flesh out this area.
