Actual Results

The currently active link in the "Activities" section does not use an “href” attribute. As a result, the browsers do not technically determined it as a link. This is because the HTML specification determines anchor tags without href attributes as being placeholder elements. As a result, users of a screen reader will not be able to interact with the link efficiently.

Expected Results

Anchor tags must use an “href” attribute according to HTML specifications. In this case, make sure that the anchor tag has an “href” attribute that point to its destination. When an anchor tag does not have an “href” attribute, browsers do not define it as a link.
If this is not possible, use custom role=”link” to make sure that the link has an interactive role.
