The Importance of Digital Inclusion

Digital inclusion moves beyond accessibility, addressing the user’s experience interacting with the website, app, or digital document. Digital inclusion incorporates accessibility at the planning and design stage to address and eliminate the barriers individuals with disabilities may face in completing a necessary task (such as entering data or efficient navigation). Digital inclusion also enables companies to be device agnostic, welcoming users of different types of assistive technology, such as screen readers, text readers, and alternate input devices that utilize speech, motion, or eye-tracking.
