Accessibility

About

The Web is an increasingly important resource in many aspects of life: education, employment, government, commerce, health care, recreation, and more. It is essential that the Web be accessible in order to provide equal access and equal opportunity for people with disabilities. An accessible Web can also help people with disabilities participate more actively in society.

The Web offers the possibility for unprecedented access to information and interaction for many people with disabilities. That is, the accessibility barriers to print, audio, and visual media can be easily overcome through Web technologies.

The power of the web is in its universality. Access by everyone regardless of disability is an essential aspect.
- Tim Berners-Lee,
Inventor of the World Wide Web.
