<strong>Accessibility:</strong>
{% if online == "false" %}
We are committed to making this workshop
accessible to everybody. For workshops at a physical location, the workshop organizers have checked that:
</p>
<ul>
<li>The room is wheelchair / scooter accessible.</li>
<li>Accessible restrooms are available.</li>
</ul>
<p>
Materials will be provided in advance of the workshop and
large-print handouts are available if needed by notifying the
organizers in advance. If we can help making learning easier for
you (e.g. sign-language interpreters, lactation facilities) please
get in touch (using contact details below) and we will
attempt to provide them.
</p>
{% else %}
We are dedicated to providing a positive and accessible learning environment for all.
We do not require participants to provide documentation of disabilities or disclose any unnecessary personal information.
However, we do want to help create an inclusive, accessible experience for all participants.

<a href="https://glosario.carpentries.org/">Glosario</a> is a multilingual glossary
for computing and data science terms. The glossary helps
learners attend workshops and use our lessons to make sense of computational and programming jargon written in English by offering it
in their native language. Translating data science terms also provides a teaching tool for Carpentries Instructors to reduce barriers
for their learners.
