KEYNOTE: Larene’s path into digital accessibility was shaped by her blind father, navigating a world that often overlooks people like him. She believes we all have the power and responsibility to design a more inclusive digital society.

Larene Le Gassick Sunday, 14th of September 9:20 AM–10:10 AM in Ballroom 3 Title: You are welcome in this world Abstract: Designing for inclusion isn’t about ticking boxes, avoiding lawsuits, or expanding markets—it’s about people. True inclusion starts with the individuals we meet and the stories we choose to share. My journey into digital accessibility has been deeply personal—shaped by my Dad, who was blind, navigating a world that too often overlooks people like him. As the designers and builders of today’s digital society, we have the power—and responsibility—to make everyone feel welcome. This talk explores how storytelling and small, intentional design decisions can spark more inclusive experiences, both at work and in the world around us. https://2025.pycon.org.au/program/DVTWWU/
