Built around lived experience
Nothing about us, and nothing useful, without us.
Talking Signage is designed as a community-led publication. Blind and low-vision people should shape the questions, standards of usefulness, testing, language, and conclusions.
Ways to contribute
Different knowledge belongs at the same table.
Contributors do not need to be professional writers. Editorial support can turn a useful observation, question, or test into a clear public guide.
Review
Challenge assumptions, assess language, and identify what an answer misses.
Test
Try a journey or prototype in the real environment and report what changed.
Explain
Bring expertise in signage, access, technology, museums, libraries, retail, policy, or research.
