peers, and establish future research agendas. W4A is an influential conference that has a growing impact on the research community. According to the ACM Digital Library Bibliometric, each of the W4A's 324 papers was downloaded on average 380 times and has 4.17 citations. These data confirm that W4A does not only provide excellent visibility to papers but also enables strong scientific impact. Every year, we select a theme that reflects the emerging trends in web accessibility and encourages researchers to look for innovative solutions that make the Web accessible for all. The rapid emergence of online learning has brought many accessibility challenges. MOOCs, Big Data, and Open Content are changing how we look at education, broadening access to learning for millions, soon billions of individuals, and creating new opportunities to remove barriers to literacy, education, and the search for knowledge. With the explosive growth of opportunities to learn online, the theme of the 13th International Web for All Conference is “Education for All on the Web.” This year, we received 44 submissions from thirteen countries showing steady interest of the research community. The submissions covered a wide range of topics including wearable and mobile interfaces, adaptation, web browsing and personalization, education, standards and guidelines, and others. Seven technical papers (36%) and twelve communication papers (48%) were selected through a rigorous peer review process. This year, W4A will feature two keynote speakers. Jutta Treviranus, Director of the Inclusive Design Research Centre (IDRC) and professor at OCAD University in Toronto and Jennison Asuncion co-founded Global Accessibility Awareness Day in 2012. Many people have contributed to the success of this conference. We would like to thank the program committee for their exceptional work and dedication in the review process. We would also like to thank the authors for their excellent work and thank delegates for their participation. Finally, we would like to thank our sponsors and supporters: Google; IBM; Intuit; The Paciello Group; Canvas; Capti; ATutorSpaces; OpenConf; ABILITY Magazine; ACM Digital Library, ACM SIGACCESS, ACM SIGCHI, ACM SIGWEB; and WWW 2016.
