What is digital accessibility?
It’s the practice of making digital content usable for everyone regarless of abilities.
Why it’s important
The world is becoming increasingly digital, and so are everyday tasks. Studies show that 15–25% of people have a disability, but the real number is likely much higher. Many disabilities go uncounted because some people don’t identify as disabled due to stigma, and some disabilities are invisible, therefore easy to undisclose.
Digital accessibility helps address many hidden challenges, including mental health conditions, color blindness, dyslexia, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and even temporary or situational barriers like screen glare or recovering from an injury. People experience the world in different ways, and the best way to build a more inclusive future is to design with as many people in mind as possible. With empathy and openness, progress and innovation will follow.
