Tiivistelmä
For this paper I produced a web page of an accessible tour of Malaga, explaining the building process of the website and the different aspects related to accessibility in the international, national, and local legal competence, attending to theoretical issues related to disability and accessibility, urban architecture, universal design, and usability. I also assessed the different touristic elements chosen for the project applying criteria’s of physical, visual and audio, accessibility using multimedia and virtual tools used as graphic resources for the web page.
The motivational side of this project was based in my personal experience as a personal assistant travelling though different cities such as, Helsinki, Barcelona, Munich, New York. It also stands on the right to participate by all persons in all the aspects of the everyday life including the right to travel, leisure and transit and the legal recognition by different institutions like the United Nations, European Union, Spanish constitution and local authorities to this right by implementing policies and norms related to accessibility.
As a Social Services bachelor’s degree student, I believe that accessibility is an essential issue in the social field and a tool to make society more equal. Accessibility empowers all individuals to participate in every aspect of life.
