Funka’s translation of WCAG 2.0 on behalf of W3C

On behalf of the W3C and with funding from the Internet Infrastructure Foundation, responsible for the Swedish top-level domain .SE, Funka has completed an authorised translation of WCAG 2.0 into Swedish. In the reference group there were representatives from public authorities, IT companies and end user organisations. Members of the public have also been invited to comment, in accordance with W3C methodology.

The official Swedish translation of WCAG 2.0 was presented at a seminar.

The main speaker was Andreas Cederbom, Funka’s Head of Analysis and coordinator of the translation. He reviewed the main points in the new guidelines, described the most significant differences between WCAG 1.0 and 2.0 and demonstrated a number of concrete examples.
