Be Update April 2021
Be. Lab News April 2021
Hello and welcome!
Last month we released our 10-year Impact Report, celebrating the accessibility
transformations throughout New Zealand that we’re so proud to have been part of
over the past decade.
Through our innovative social change programmes we work with New Zealand
businesses to advance accessibility across all areas of life from leisure and tourism,
meaningful employment opportunities, leadership development, organisational
culture, diversity and inclusion, public attitudes and perceptions of accessibility, and
access innovation.
It is because of our unique, holistic approach and suite of programmes that Be. Lab
is New Zealand’s One-Stop-Shop for Accessibility.
As part of our ongoing commitment to advancing accessibility, we have developed a
free online accessibility assessment (www.belab.co.nz/accessibility-assessment/) ,
and in this month’s newsletter we’re sharing more free resources for New Zealand
businesses to help you on your journey towards becoming truly accessible for
everyone. We hope you enjoy reading!
We’re also delighted to share the Te Reo Maori version of our 10-year Impact Report
and excited to announce that we have two new job opportunities here at Be. Lab.
Be. well, from the Be. Team
