Will you be among the speakers at the first pan-disability Techshare conference? +Techshare 2007 will be held: 4 - 5 October at Novotel London West (Hammersmith), London, UK. The Techshare 2007 conference is an international event for professionals who are interested in technology and the role it plays in learning, work and society for people with disabilities. This year the conference is organised by RNIB in partnership with other leading disability organisations, and we are looking for presentations that contribute to the conference content covering a variety of disabilities. We are also delighted to announce that Techshare 2007 will include the DAISY International Conference and are therefore interested in presentations that relate to this leading standard for digital talking books. Presentations should relate to technology but not necessarily be technical in content and should be relevant to the use of technology in work, learning or everyday life. We are looking for insight into leading edge technology research and development, as well as presentations around technology specifically relating to disability and case studies highlighting the use of technology. We hope to offer delegates a range of technical depth to match their experience, to interest those without significant knowledge of disability technology, as well as the experts in the field. + Submit your paper now by completing the word or plain text document attached to this email and sending it to: techshare@xxxxxxxxxxx + Closing date for submissions: 1 July 2007 + Decisions will be notified to the main presenters by 3 August 2007 If you have any questions about presenting at Techshare or submitting your paper, please contact the Techshare Team.
