High data costs limit online access.
Inaccessible platforms deepen digital exclusion.

Digital accessibility is a right, not a favour. Websites, applications and online services should be designed to work for people with different disabilities, including those who use screen readers, captions, keyboards or other assistive technologies #AbiliSpace#DigitalInclusion
Accessibility should never be treated as an optional feature. Websites, mobile applications and digital services must consider the different ways persons with disabilities access and interact with technology

How can inaccessible information and online misinformation affect PWDs' access to health information, public announcements and emergency alerts?
Key message: Information should be accurate, understandable and accessible to everyone #AbiliSpace#DigitalInclusion@gda_kenya@abilis
Can technology truly be inclusive if persons with disabilities are not involved in designing it?
PWDs are not just users of technology. They are innovators, experts and decision-makers whose experiences and ideas should shape digital solutions.
