Creating Accessible Events

There are many things that organizers should consider to make their events accessible. This webpage is an in-progress compilation of services and tools to organize more accessible events at UBC Vancouver Campus. It will be updated as more resources and information become available. We welcome your suggestions for additions and edits to this page.

Curating Exhibitions

An exhibition is an excellent opportunity to invite the public to engage with your research in new ways, to showcase tangible or intangible items you are researching, and to create a story about your research. As public-facing projects, they are enriched and shaped by the visitors and public who engage with the exhibit. Behind the scenes, they also present opportunities for knowledge exchange through collaborative work between academics and curators; archivists and librarians; and communities.

Making Infographics

Infographics, or information graphics, are graphic visualizations that combine data, illustrations, text, and images to tell a story. This toolkit builds on the advice and resources shared by participants in our roundtable on infographic creation and accessible research dissemination. This toolkit will provide additional information on accessible research dissemination and infographics as pedagogy and will offer recommendations on creating infographics.
