This session explores how WordPress can better serve the Deaf Australian community through Auslan (Australian Sign Language) accessibility. The presenter will highlight practical strategies for integrating Auslan into WordPress websites using themes, plugins, and design practices that prioritise inclusion. Topics include video embedding for Auslan content, user-friendly navigation for Deaf users, and how developers, content creators, and organisations can ensure their digital spaces are accessible and culturally respectful. This talk is ideal for web developers, accessibility advocates, and anyone committed to making the web more inclusive for the signing Deaf community in Australia.
