Organisée par le IDRC, en partenariat avec l'Université Concordia, la conférence CAMA, qui se tiendra les 27 et 28 mai 2024, est un événement international consacré à l'avancement de l'accessibilité et de la conception inclusive. Cette conférence est l'occasion de cocréer des ressources et de partager les connaissances et les enseignements tirés de l'avancement de l'accessibilité et de l'inclusion.
