It is an opportunity to celebrate the valuable contributions of Canadians with disabilities, as well as a time to recognize the efforts of those actively working to remove barriers to access and inclusion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As we celebrate National AccessAbility Week 2025, it is our pleasure to share <a href=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/accessibility-institute\/accessibility-strategy\/\">杏吧原创 University\u2019s renewed Coordinated Accessibility Strategy<\/a> (CAS). This refreshed strategy guides the implementation of accessibility initiatives at 杏吧原创 and acts as a catalyst to drive our culture of accessibility. It was developed after several months of <a href=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/accessibility-institute\/accessibility-strategy\/consultation-2024-25\/\">comprehensive consultation<\/a> and represents the diverse voices of our community, including those with lived experiences of disability. We have made <a href=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/accessibility-institute\/accessibility-strategy\/#sect3\">significant progress since the first CAS launched in 2020<\/a>, but there is more to be done. This renewed strategy guides our ongoing commitment to a campus that is accessible and inclusive for all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We would like to thank everyone who provided feedback throughout this process. Your input was invaluable in shaping the renewed strategy. As part of our commitment to conducting a transparent process, the CAS has published <a href=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/accessibility-institute\/accessibility-strategy\/consultation-2024-25\/feedback-received\/\">a report outlining the feedback received<\/a> throughout the drafting phase of the consultation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Together, we can create a more accessible and inclusive world for all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Sincerely,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Suzanne Blanchard<br>Vice-President (Students and Enrolment)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rafik Goubran<br>Vice-President (Research and International)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>L.
