Accessibility is essential for creating a society where everyone is included, allowing all people, regardless of their abilities, to access and use spaces, products, and services. It promotes social inclusion, offers equal opportunities, improves quality of life, and brings economic benefits, in addition to being a basic human right. Important measures to promote accessibility include: universal design in buildings and products, digital accessibility, adequate infrastructure such as ramps and elevators, accessible public transportation, education and awareness on the topic, creation and enforcement of laws, investment in assistive technologies, and the participation of people with disabilities in policy-making. Implementing these actions is crucial to valuing human diversity and promoting inclusion and equality for all.
