Drupalcamp Kortrijk 2026

Level: All levels
Target audience: A11y enthusiasts

Accessibility remains one of the most underestimated aspects of web development — and also one of the easiest to improve once you know where to look. In this session, we skip the theory and dive straight into the real world.

We kick off with the top 10 most common accessibility issues we encounter in our daily workflow at Calibrate. For every gotcha, you get a concrete, actionable fix — no vague advice, just solutions you can apply immediately.

Then we get our hands dirty with an extensive manual a11y audit of politie.be, one of Belgium's highest-traffic government websites. We walk through the 2026 findings, explain these issues, and show how to address them — including in a Drupal context.

We wrap up with a practical toolkit for accessibility testing.

You'll leave this session with:

• A clear understanding of the most common a11y pitfalls and how to fix them
• First-hand insight into what a real audit looks like on a high-visibility public sector site
• A ready-to-use set of testing tools you can start using tomorrow
