Website Accessibility: Publications and Resources

Summary: Our "Website Accessibility and Inclusive Design Practices" database at Disabled-World (DW) is an extensive resource dedicated to enhancing digital accessibility for people with disabilities. This database encompasses a broad range of publications including articles, news updates, and practical guides on web accessibility. Key topics covered include the principles of designing websites to be accessible to individuals with visual, auditory, motor, and cognitive impairments, as well as discussions on legal compliance with accessibility standards like the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG). Examples of content include strategies for making websites more usable for people with low vision or color blindness, ensuring keyboard navigability for those with motor disabilities, and creating content that is understandable for individuals with cognitive impairments. The database also features case studies and advice on how to integrate accessibility from the design phase, highlighting both technical aspects and the broader implications for inclusivity in digital spaces.

Some items may be updated or revised, but the table defaults to sorting by descending publication date; you can search and sort by clicking column headers (JavaScript required).
