As part of its endeavors to enabling equal opportunities for all to access education and to fostering lifelong learning harnessing the power of ICT and the tremendous potential of Open Educational Resources OER, Mada launches the “Mada accessible OER Hub” to be the Mada branded portal on OER Commons where accessible open resources are aggregated, curated and managed through collections, and groups, and development tools.
Mada Hub contains collections of accessible Open Education Resources  curated by Mada and partners, including collections of resources which are aligned to Mada ICT Accessibility and Inclusive Design Competency Framework (ICT-AID). The community of inclusive education and ICT accessibility experts, advocates, educators and learners can discover accessible open content, and connect with others to improve inclusive practices.

Mada ICT-AID Competency Framework is aimed at providing the community with a framework that can be used as a tool to assist educational institutions, organizations and individuals in delimiting the required relevant competencies in the ICT accessibility and inclusive design field. This open framework can be harnessed to create curricula, learning resources and teaching materials on ICT accessibility and inclusive design, and also to make other courses accessible.

The Arab ICT Accessibility Expert Group by Mada “AIAEG”, an initiative from Mada Center Qatar, was established to unify the Arabic efforts and to establish the first expert hub in the region dedicated to Digital Accessibility.
