Digital Accessibility

Digital Accessibility refers to the practice of ensuring that digital content, tools, and technologies are usable by all individuals, including those with disabilities. This includes websites, applications, software, and electronic documents being designed and developed in a way that allows people with various disabilities—such as visual, auditory, motor, or cognitive impairments—to access and interact with the information effectively. Key principles of digital accessibility involve providing alternative text for images, ensuring proper keyboard navigation, utilizing sufficient color contrast for readability, and enabling screen reader compatibility. The goal of digital accessibility is to remove barriers and create an inclusive digital environment that respects the rights of all users to access information and services equally.
