NeurIPS (Dec 2019) had a 50-minute panel discussion on disabilities in AI and how the conference could best meet those needs. I have transcribed the discussion here:
https://reshamas.github.io/neurips-disability-in-ai-panel-transcript/

Some suggestions include:

  • having a ramp at all times for stage access, rather than waiting for a request
  • considering well-being at conferences
  • providing quieter and less crowded poster sessions
  • considering invisible illnesses more
  • considering cognitive disabilities
