Stakeholders
FORTH-ICS (LTO) The Institute of Computer Science (ICS), an ERCIM member, is one the seven institutes of the Foundation for Research and Technology - Hellas (FORTH), a major national research centre partly funded by the General Secretariat for Research and Technology of the Hellenic Ministry of Development. The mission of FORTH-ICS is to perform high quality basic and applied research, to promote education and training, and to contribute to the development of the Information Society, at a regional, national, and European level. Since its establishment in 1983, FORTH-ICS has had a long history and recognised tradition in conducting basic and applied research, and playing a leading role, in Greece and internationally, in the field of Information and Communication Technologies. The Human Computer Interaction Laboratory of FORTH-ICS carries out leading research activities focused on developing user interfaces for interactive applications and services that are accessible, usable, and ultimately acceptable for diverse users in the Information Society. The Laboratory also operates the Centre for Universal Access & Assistive Technologies (CUA&AT). The main objective of the Centre, which operates in the context of the Human Computer Interaction Laboratory of FORTH-ICS, is to support the equal participation and socio-economic integration of people with various types of disability in the emerging Information Society, by developing accessible applications and services.
The Centre is actively involved in the eEurope/eAccessibility initiatives of the EC, and in the establishment of national recommendations in that respect. The Centre also contributes to international standardisation activities as well as to dissemination activities promoting accessibility. The Centre for Universal Access and Assistive Technologies is the co-ordinator of GR-DeAN, the Greek Design for All eAccessibility Network, operating as the National Contact Centre in the context of EDeAN, the European Design for All eAccessibility Network. The GR-DeAN Network aims to promote in Greece the application of the "Universal Access and Usability" and "Design for All" principles, support activities towards the equal participation of individuals with disabilities in the Information Society as well as raise awareness of public and private actors regarding the adoption and implementation of W3C-WAI accessibility guidelines. Special Interest Groups have been set up to carry out discussions related to accessibility issues in Greece. The network is coordinated by FORTH-ICS in cooperation with the National Confederation of People with Disability of Greece (ESAEA).

W3C Greek Office. The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) Office in Greece was founded in 1998 and is hosted by FORTH-ICS. The Greek W3C Office is the only Greek organisation authorised to enrol new W3C Members in Greece. The Office also disseminates information regarding W3C cutting-edge technologies, including the work performed on the potential of the present Web so that it evolves to the Web of the future. Finally, the Office extends its range to European Organisations residing in Greece, including the latest W3C member, ENISA, the European Network and Information Security Agency, which recently joined W3C through the Greek Office.

ESAEA The National Confederation of Disabled People is an umbrella organization representing the disability movement of Greece. The N.C.D.P was founded in 1989 by organizations of people with disabilities and their families in order to copy with issues of common interest related to any kind of disability and therefore, is a strong, independent representative body for all disabled people in the Greek state. It includes more than 250 organizations that deal with all kinds of disabilities. The N.C.D.P of Greece has officially been recognized as the national co-partner of the Greek State dealing with disability issues, promoting policies so that those concerned are included socially, economically and politically in the everyday life of the country. The N.C.D.P' s mission is to combat discriminations against disabled people and protect their rights as well as the rights of their families. Its goal is the equalization of opportunities for the people with disabilities. At a national level, as the most representative organization for people with disabilities, the N.C.D.P participates actively in decision-making and stands for people with disabilities in the NGO's dialogue with the Greek State. It is organizing strategies, controlling the implementation of legal measures and makes suggestions to the Greek State regarding education, employment, information society and accessibility matters.
