An accessibility plan for Memorial University was finalized in December 2023.

Members of the Memorial University community, including both internal and external stakeholders, contributed to Memorial’s Accessibility Plan. Throughout the process of developing the plan, these contributors committed to listening to the voices of the Memorial University community and emphasized the need to include stakeholders with lived experience. Memorial University thanks the students, faculty and staff as well as external stakeholder groups for providing guidance and feedback throughout the development of this plan. Many people who participated shared their lived experiences, which have been impactful in terms of the creation and eventual implementation of Memorial’s Accessibility Plan.

In creating the Memorial University Accessibility Plan, contributors followed the Accessibility Plan Guide provided by the Disability Policy Office (DPO), Government of Newfoundland and Labrador (2023).

The context of Memorial University’s Accessibility Plan includes both legislative requirements and existing university plans and policies related, in part or in full, to accessibility.
