Unilever Websites

Web Content Accessibilities Guidelines 2.0 Project

During the summer of 2016, I was the project lead for the Pilot Project to make all Unilever Websites Web Content Accessibilities Guidelines 2.0 (WCAG 2.0) AA Compliant. The project required me to learn all aspects of WCAG 2.0 AA Compliance and the workflow for Unilever to launch and update company websites and adapt them to the corporate strategy to launch and review all websites to reach compliance.  

WCAG – is the standard set by the World Wide Web Consortium which dictates how a website should operate, look, and feel for people with disabilities. This project required me to become the Subject Matter Expert (SME) and provide the company with a strategy to enforce compliance. 

I was tasked to revise both the KlondikeBar and Breyers Ice Cream website. I completed my Summer Internship and was able to produce a strategy to allow the company to continue the project upon my departure. 

Visit the websites today to see how they have been updated to meet compliance.
