In most countries of the world, it is still not possible for people with disabilities to fully exercise their rights. Social, economic, legal and political barriers block their path to a self-determined life. One of FAIRMED's major goals is to ensure that people with disabilities are recognized and included as full members of society. That is why we are committed to ensuring that people with disabilities are no longer discriminated against - including through our involvement in the Swiss Disability and Development Consortium (SDDC).
In addition, we are concerned about how we can make our content as accessible as possible to people with disabilities at all levels - including on our website. For this reason, formal quality assurance regarding accessibility was conducted throughout the design and development process of the new website. An external consultancy was commissioned with this, which then also re-evaluated the site before go-live. All results are summarized here.
