EACE Universal Design Format 

EACE promotes a culture of diversity, equity, and inclusion where all are respected, accepted, and safe. It is within this spirit we ask that presenters to follow these guidelines:

• Presentations should be given using the EACE PowerPoint Template.
• Do not use animations for text.
• Use colors with a high contrast. Black or dark blue text color on a white background.
• Use a Sans-Serif font (Arial, Calibri, Verdana)
• Font size should be a minimum of 18 pt or greater.
• Text should not overlap with pictures or background images.
• When utilizing a video, make sure the video is captioned.
• Utilize words and phrases that do not indicate gender bias.
• Avoid the use descriptors of gender identity or sexual orientation as modifiers, not as nouns
• Avoid guessing sex, gender identity, or sexual orientation.
• Promote the use of language that recognizes varying abilities.
• Use language that captures diverse global contexts.
