DESCRIPTION:With the EU's Web Accessibility Directive (WAD) and the Europea
 n Accessibility Act (EAA) now in effect\, government agencies face new cha
 llenges in digital compliance. This talk addresses the critical question: 
 "Now what?" We will cut through the legal jargon to reveal the practical s
 teps departments must take to meet these regulations. The session will hig
 hlight the crucial gap between the EAA's broad requirements and the specif
 ic needs of government implementation. Using data from the Web Almanac\, w
 e'll expose where government sites are failing and discuss how strategic p
 rocurement and the use of platforms like Drupal can build a foundation for
  sustained compliance\, ensuring services are truly accessible to all citi
 zens.
