MS Forum Accessibility In The Metaverse WG

Abstract

Working group of the Metaverse Standards Forum dedicated to securing accessibility and inclusion for everyone in the metaverse.

The goal is to generate insights, identify risks, and recommend strategies and best practices to ensure that immersive experiences, environments, interfaces, and interactions are accessible to all, regardless of abilities or disabilities and access needs.

Ultimately, we will support the creation of comprehensive XR standards on par with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines. This will enable organizations to know with certainty whether their XR applications are accessible or not, and open the door to the next phase of ethical growth of the metaverse.
