Digital accessibility for all is recognised as a cornerstone of the European initiative for an inclusive Europe. Slovenia is actively aligning with this initiative by striving to ensure the accessibility of websites, mobile applications, digital products, and services, thus expanding the circle of users to include persons with disabilities.

This event seeks to foster collaboration by bringing together inspectors, service providers, and other stakeholders. Key objectives include presenting policy requirements, exploring support mechanisms for persons with disabilities, and encouraging the implementation of accessibility measures.

Discussions will focus on practical approaches to aligning with relevant policies and regulations, complemented by a showcase of best practices. The exchange of experiences, particularly through exemplary case studies, will serve as a valuable resource for participants to enhance their understanding of how to design and utilise digital products to ensure inclusivity for all.

This hybrid event represents a significant step towards building a more inclusive digital landscape in Slovenia and beyond.
