Description

Language Access is a fundamental component of equitable community engagement. To meet the needs of underserved communities, our projects and outreach strategies must be multilingual and culturally welcoming. Language access allows people’s voices to be heard and affirms that their voice does matter. We live in a globalizing and increasingly multilingual world. Our public processes need to be multilingual, too.

In this interactive webinar series, Sasha Parodi will:

• Help participants work through sustainable strategies for language access.
• Talk about bridging access with meaningful multilingual participation.
• Address the intersection of language and disability justice and examine how communication access benefits everyone and strengthens your public process overall. 
• Strategize on public participation design that is not only linguistically accessible but culturally inclusive.
