<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">This keynote addresses the often-overlooked human dimension of accessibility in cultural heritage, particularly at the intersection of digital innovation and physical
preservation. While technology plays a vital role, true accessibility is rooted in empathy, cultural relevance, and regional engagement. Focusing on the Americas and other Portuguese and Spanish-speaking regions, the presentation highlights the critical role
of people—heritage professionals, communities, and networks—in creating inclusive access.</span></p>

<b>APOYOnline – Association for Heritage Preservation of the Americas</b>, a multilingual grassroot non-profit organization that has promoted accessible knowledge-sharing and capacity-building for over 35 years. Through education, collaboration, and culturally
attuned practices, APOYOnline exemplifies how human-centered approaches can bridge gaps and build resilient heritage networks. This talk advocates for placing people at the heart of accessibility efforts to ensure that cultural heritage is not only preserved
but equitably shared.</span></p>
