Question 2

An event vendor's contract does not mention accessibility. What should the inclusive event planner do?

Question 3

When planning a multilingual event, which approach BEST supports language accessibility?

Professional interpretation, translated materials, and multilingual signage together ensure non-English speakers can participate fully and with dignity.

Accepted Answer

Intentionally sourcing goods and services from businesses owned by underrepresented groups, including disability-owned enterprises

Answer

Inclusive procurement extends inclusion beyond the event itself by directing spending toward businesses owned by historically marginalized communities.

Question 5

A planner is told that live captioning is too expensive for the event budget. What is the BEST inclusive response?
