Understanding the Accessibility Gap
In our world, a significant portion of the population, 16% globally and 26% in the US, confronts a substantial obstacle daily. This barrier isn’t physical; it’s digital. The internet, a tool that many of us consider a basic necessity, is only 3% accessible to individuals with disabilities. That’s right – only 3% of today’s websites are accessible. This is the accessibility gap, a divide that separates those with disabilities from the full advantages of the digital world.
For a more inclusive online experience, it’s crucial to bridge this gap. Not only is it a matter of basic human rights, but it also opens up a world of opportunities for businesses to reach a wider audience and enhance their digital presence.
