         <h2>Motivation and Background</h2>
-        <p>W3C’s mission is to make the Web work based on the principles of accessibility, internationalization, privacy, and security.</p>
-        <p>The last two principles, Privacy and Security, are integral to <a href="https://www.un.org/en/about-us/universal-declaration-of-human-rights" alt="Article 3: Everyone has the right to life, liberty and security of person.">human rights</a> and <a href="https://www.ohchr.org/en/instruments-mechanisms/instruments/international-covenant-civil-and-political-rights" title="Article 9: Everyone has the right to liberty and security of person">civil liberties</a> and have always been of the Consortium's concern.</p>
+        <q>W3C’s <a href="https://www.w3.org/mission/">mission</a> is to <q>develop open standards for an interoperable web to meet requirements for accessibility, internationalization, privacy, and security – so that humanity can experience all that the web has to offer.</q></p>
+        <p>The last two requirements, Privacy and Security, are integral to <a href="https://www.un.org/en/about-us/universal-declaration-of-human-rights" alt="Article 3: Everyone has the right to life, liberty and security of person.">human rights</a> and <a href="https://www.ohchr.org/en/instruments-mechanisms/instruments/international-covenant-civil-and-political-rights" title="Article 9: Everyone has the right to liberty and security of person">civil liberties</a> and have always been of the Consortium's concern.</p>
         <p>Also, in the <a href="https://www.w3.org/TR/ethical-web-principles/">Ethical Web Principles</a>, there are several principles related to security both as a societal impact <a href="https://www.w3.org/TR/ethical-web-principles/#noharm">The web does not cause harm to society</a> and in terms of people's security <a href="https://www.w3.org/TR/ethical-web-principles/#privacy">The web is secure, and respects peoples' privacy</a>, where the goal is to create technology that creates as few threats as possible, or mitigates those threats</p>
         <p>Several working groups deal with security issues, such as <a href="https://www.w3.org/groups/wg/webappsec/">developing mechanisms and best practices which improve the security of Web Applications</a>, <a href="https://www.w3.org/groups/wg/webauthn/">develping strong authentication functionality for Web Applications</a>, <a href="https://www.w3.org/groups/wg/fedid/">developing APIs to allow a website to request an identity credential securely</a>, and <a href="https://www.w3.org/groups/ig/securepay/">enhancing the security and interoperability of various Web payments technologies</a>.</p>
         <p>Security is also a horizontal topic that often touches other groups and standards. Security can impact any protocol or API, which can have security implications. W3C Process mandates <a href="https://www.w3.org/policies/process/#wide-review">Wide Reviews</a>, which is one of the Interest Group’s main scope.</p>
