  2. Create Practical Tools Designing and launching accessible resources including templates, guidelines, and example libraries to support day-to-day execution.


  3. Enable Through Training Leading global training initiatives to embed understanding and adoption.


  4. Reinforce Through Governance Establishing review processes and feedback loops to maintain quality and consistency over time.
