May 16, we celebrate Global Accessibility Awareness Day (GAAD)
#GAAD is a day to recognize the intersection of accessibility and humanity. It’s a reminder of the advances in technology and infrastructure that call for greater inclusion and accessibility. In the physical world, accessibility means creating spaces where everyone can move freely and feel welcomed. In the digital world, it ensures everyone can navigate, understand, and interact with online content without barriers.
By improving accessibility in our country, both physically and digitally, we:
1. Facilitate access to information
2. Enhance online and personal commerce
3. Boost the workforce
4. Foster inclusion
On this Global Accessibility Awareness Day, the Alton Paas Foundation and SIM Caribbean celebrate our progress and inspire you to join us in focusing on an inclusive and accessible #Curaçao for all.
Join us in sharing this message, because when accessibility is a priority, we unlock the full potential of every individual in our community.
