It is very abundantly clear that persons with disabilities continue to be excluded especially in matters digital technologies. @inABLEorg nation.africa/kenya/blogs-op…
This morning, self-advocate @tianelis1 with @InclusionIntl spoke to the General Assembly at #COSP16 🌎. She highlighted the many barriers for self-advocates that still exist at #COSP and at the UN, 16 years after the adoption of the #CRPD. (1/2)
On #AccessibilityAwarenessDay, we’re proud to launch a new study, in partnership with @cariboudigital and @inABLEorg, exploring the experiences of young Kenyans living with disabilities as they use digital platforms to earn a living. THREAD 🧵
The new study found that #ecommerce platforms in Kenya present significant challenges for users with disabilities, particularly those with visual impairments. The study recommends: 💻Improvements to screen reader support 📋Implementation of digital #accessibility standards
🌟It's also a hopeful study, with some inspiring success stories! If the #usability and accessibility of online #platforms is improved, they have the potential to eliminate physical barriers to running thriving businesses online that many young people with disabilities face.
Our first panel of the day✅ They will be discussing of Google's latest digital accessibility innovations and projects. #InclusiveAfrica2023 #a11yafrica2023
