World TV Day 2023
Global TV champions accessibility

On 21 November, TV companies around the globe celebrate World TV Day to remind us all of the power of TV. As part of the annual United Nations initiative, a 30-second spot will be broadcast on TV and shared online to mark the occasion. The focus of the 27th edition of World TV Day is accessibility. While Total TV is accessible anytime, anywhere, and on any device, it should be equally accessible to anybody, irrespective of one’s vision or hearing ability.
