The Annual International Technology and Persons with Disabilities Conference, also known as the CSUN Conference, is turning 30 this year, and has been actively committed to fulfill its role in advancing the quality of life for people with disabilities.

For the third time, the conference will feature a special Scientific/Research Track aimed at fostering the involvment of leading reasearchers into the CSUN community and a platform of users, practitioners, educators and policy makers with the fields of technology and disability. The conference has been serving and supporting the fields of technology and disability, assistive technologies and eAccessibility as the major platforms for meeting and exchanging ideas, attracting more than 4,500 participants every year. It reflects, facilitates and contributes to the revolutionary developments for the inclusion of people with disabilities around the globe aided by the Information and Communications Technology (ICT) and Assistive Technology (AT) revolutions and cross-fertilized by social, political, legal, cultural and economic changes. 

This year, OpenConcept is pleased to announce that our Founder and President, Mike Gifford, will be presenting on the following topic: Why Drupal Accessibility is Helping it to Dominate Education and Government.
