After each item is the acronym of the responsible Working Group (WG) and some Task Forces (TF). Information about the groups is later in this page — first, let’s look at some of the work itself.</p> <h2 id="current-work-highlights">Current Work Highlights</h2> <h3 id="updating-core-guidelines-and-other-standards">Updating Core Guidelines and Other Standards</h3> <ul> <li> <p><strong>W3C Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 3</strong> is in an exploratory phase, and will change substantially. It’s years away from being finalized. Please see information on the latest draft and <a href="/WAI/standards-guidelines/wcag/wcag3-intro/#for-your-review">review questions</a> in <a href="/WAI/standards-guidelines/wcag/wcag3-intro/">WCAG 3 Introduction</a> <em>[AG WG]</em></p> </li> <li> <p><strong>ARIA 1.3</strong> — We’re working on additional support for Braille and other <a href="https://w3c.github.io/aria/#substantive-changes-targeted-for-the-1-3-release">new features for ARIA 1.3</a>. <em>[ARIA WG]</em></p> </li> </ul> <h3 id="developing-new-standards">Developing New Standards</h3> <ul> <li> <p><strong>WAI-Adapt</strong> enables users to adapt (or ‘personalize’) how content is presented to meet their needs and preferences. <a href="/WAI/adapt/">WAI-Adapt Overview</a> <em>[APA WG, WAI-Adapt TF]</em></p> </li> <li> <p><strong>Spoken Presentation</strong> technical standards will enable screen readers and voice assistants to pronounce words correctly. <a href="/WAI/pronunciation/">Pronunciation Overview</a> <em>[APA WG, Spoken Presentation TF]</em></p> </li> </ul> <h3 id="documenting-additional-guidance-for-people-with-cognitive-disabilities-low-vision-and-mobile-devices">Documenting Additional Guidance for People with Cognitive Disabilities, Low Vision, and Mobile Devices</h3> <ul> <li><strong>Cognitive Accessibility</strong> — We’re updating several documents to better address the needs of people with cognitive and learning disabilities. A current topic is mental health. <a href="/WAI/cognitive/">Cognitive Accessibility at W3C</a>. <em>[AG WG, COGA TF]</em></li> </ul>  <ul> <li><strong>Mobile Accessibility</strong> work includes supporting on-going standards development, including supporting WCAG 3 exploration. <a href="/WAI/standards-guidelines/mobile/">Mobile Accessibility at W3C</a> <em>[AG WG, Mobile TF]</em></li> </ul> <h3 id="updating-guidance-on-applying-wcag-to-ict-and-on-epub-accessibility">Updating Guidance on Applying WCAG to ICT and on EPUB Accessibility</h3> <ul> <li> <p><strong>WCAG2ICT</strong> describes how Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2 can be applied to non-web information and communications technologies (ICT). In October 2024 we published an update that includes all WCAG 2.2Level A and AA success criteria. We are now working on Level AAA success criteria. <a href="/WAI/standards-guidelines/wcag/non-web-ict/">WCAG2ICT Overview</a> <em>[AG WG, WCAG2ICT TF]</em></p> </li> <li> <p><strong>EPUB Fixed Layout Accessibility</strong> aims to help publishers address challenges for people with cognitive disabilities and low vision. <a href="https://w3c.github.io/epub-specs/epub33/fxl-a11y/">EPUB Fixed Layout Accessibility Editor’s Draft</a> <em>[EPUB3 WG, FXL A11y TF]</em></p> </li> </ul> <h3 id="defining-user-requirements-aur-and-exploring-emerging-technologies">Defining User Requirements (AUR) and Exploring Emerging Technologies</h3> <p>Documenting the user needs of people with disabilities helps develop standards to meet those needs. It also helps designers, developers, and others better understand and meet user needs in order to support accessibility. <cite>XR Accessibility User Requirements</cite> and more listed at <a href="/WAI/research/user-requirements/">Digital Accessibility User Requirements</a>.</p>  <ul> <li> <p><strong>Collaboration Tools Accessibility User Requirements (“CTAUR”)</strong> is a Working Draft. It describes user needs in tools that provide support for one or more specific collaborative features. These features include real-time editing of content by multiple authors, the use of comments or annotations, and revision control. <a href="https://w3c.github.io/ctaur/">CTAUR Editor’s Draft</a> <em>[APA WG, Research TF]</em></p> </li> <li> <p><strong>How People with Disabilities Use the Web</strong> helps you understand user needs broadly.

We are polishing up a new iteration of this popular resource. <a href="/WAI/test-evaluate/preliminary/">Easy Checks - previous version</a>, <a href="/WAI/test-evaluate/easy-checks/">draft new version of Easy Checks</a></li> <li><strong>ACT Rules</strong> (Accessibility Conformance Testing (ACT), also known as “WCAG 2 Test Rules”) describe ways to test conformance to WCAG success criteria. They are primarily for developers of evaluation tools and test methodologies. We’re documenting more. <a href="/WAI/standards-guidelines/act/rules/about/">About ACT Rules</a> <em>[AG WG, ACT TF]</em></li> <li>ACT Rules implementation reports list how test tools or methodologies address test examples in ACT Rules.

There are <a href="/WAI/roles/">resources for</a> content authors, designers, developers, evaluators, testers, managers, policy makers, trainers, educators, web users, advocates, and people with disabilities.</p> <p><strong>Discover</strong> accessibility resources that <em>you didn’t even know existed</em> from the annotated list of <strong><a href="/WAI/resources/">WAI Resources</a>.</strong> When you find helpful information, would you <strong>share it with others</strong>.</p> <h2 id="participate">How to Get Involved</h2> <p>To learn about contributing to W3C WAI accessibility work generally, <strong>see <a href="/WAI/about/participating/">Participating in WAI</a></strong>.</p> <p>Links to each Working Group’s “How to Participate” page are in the <a href="/WAI/about/participating/#WGs">Participating in Working Groups section</a>.
