Webinar Outline

The difference between access and accessibility isn’t well understood, but the distinction matters a lot for trail users with disabilities. Confusion about these terms can lead to spaces being presented as accessible when they’re actual inaccessible. It can also create confusion among organizations and trail users about what exactly “accessible” means. The webinar would discuss and show examples of increasing trail access and accessibility by focusing on four areas using a DEIAB lens: Information, Language, Experience/Environment, and Authenticity.

Learning Objectives:

  • Clarifying the meaning of accessible
  • Increasing knowledge and awareness on how to provide better experiences on accessible trails.
  • Understand ways to increase both access and accessibility
