Accessibility includes physical spaces, digital platforms, information, communication and social attitudes. An accessible entrance is not enough if information or conversations remain inaccessible. Reasonable accommodation, understandable information and respect for individual needs make meaningful participation possible.
What this means in everyday life
The right to choose requires accessible information, respect for privacy and opportunities to participate in conversations. Asking a person which accommodations they prefer matters more than assumptions about their needs. Addressing physical, social and communication barriers is a shared responsibility.
