Abstract [en]

Accessibility influencers play a pivotal role in the broader accessibility movement, leveraging social media to raise awareness and shape public opinion. This study explores the distinct goals, communication styles, and approaches these influential figures employ to make complex legislative content more accessible and engaging. Utilizing netnography for data collection and conducting thematic analysis of interviews, this research highlights the crucial role of accessibility influencers in disseminating knowledge, advocating for universal design, and enhancing digital accessibility. The findings emphasize the importance of integrating accessibility principles into educational curricula, ensuring the development of a workforce capable of creating inclusive environments. Moreover, the study underscores the need for continuous professional development and systemic inclusion of accessibility training across all educational levels.
