digital center about accessibility and universal design (DCAUD)
presentation
Accessibility and universal design are fundamental pillars for a social sustainability that we all desire for our territories, since it allows all citizens to participate in civic activities.
The accessibility law (DL 163/2006 of August 8), in force throughout the national territory, is the existing legal instrument on these issues (physical perspective of access to the building). However, it is not complied with at all, whether due to a lack of sensitivity, training or also due to a lack of supervision. The same happens regarding the accessibility to digital contents (DL 83/2018 of October 19).
We are building this new project that intends to revolutionize the way we speak and address the issues of accessibility but also about universal design. It will be a digital platform where various contents and information material on the themes of universal design and accessibility, success stories and good national and international practices will be present.
We want this platform to be constantly updated, that is, a dynamic platform, interactive and, above all, participatory.
Contribute to the growth of this platform. Promote, participate and share.
