Description
The Programme Accessibility Plus is a governmental programme adopted by the Resolution of the Council of Ministers. Due to its intentionally general provisions, the form of which is friendly for every citizen it does not contain many detailed, implementation solutions. They will be developed and incorporated into a separate document that will be used for the practical Programme implementation. It will consist of the synthesis of the interim Activity Implementation Plans prepared by coordinators of particular Activities in the Programme.
The Programme Accessibility Plus foresees a twin-track impact on the condition of accessibility in Poland. The first strategic dimension is the permanent inclusion of the accessibility issue into all public policies, to the planning practice, implementation and state’s functioning assessment.
The Programme is based on three main premises. The first one is rooted in the principle of the state’s subsidiarity towards all various social groups: disabilities, seniors, people experiencing a temporary health detriment or physical fitness. Secondly, the Programme is a consequence of the sustainable development policy. This policy indicates that social development is a key factor of support for the economic progress. Thirdly, the programme results from the assessment of social and physical reality.
