Accessibility

Definition

Accessibility is not just about mobility; it represents the ability for every individual to fully engage with the world around them. It means being able to access physical spaces, digital tools, technologies, and essential services without barriers, promoting fair and complete inclusion in society. An accessible environment ensures that all individuals, regardless of their motor, sensory, or cognitive abilities, can live in a autonomous, safe, and dignified manner.

Current challenges

Today, over 72 million people worldwide live with a total disability of the lower limbs, while many others face motor, sensory, or cognitive limitations that hinder access to public spaces, transportation, digital services, and educational and job opportunities. Infrastructure and technology are often not designed to meet everyone’s needs, creating barriers that reduce autonomy and active participation in society.

Major barriers include:

Reduced educational and employment opportunities due to the lack of tools and environments that support the full participation of everyone.
Limited access to public and private buildings, with inadequate entrances or lack of accessible pathways.
They include digital services, websites, and applications that are difficult to use for those with visual or cognitive disabilities.
Transportation systems not adapted, which hinder independent movement and assistance-free travel.

These issues limit individual freedom, make access to information difficult, and reduce involvement in social and professional life. Accessibility must become a core principle in the design of spaces, technologies, and services to ensure equal opportunities for all.
