CREATING A WORLD FOR EVERYONE - TECHNICAL BRIEF ON APPLYING ACCESSIBILITY AND UNIVERSAL DESIGN

Welcome to this guidance note which outlines a vision for a world where infrastructure, services, and products are accessible to everyone, regardless of who they are or where they live. This vision aligns with the European Union’s (EU's) commitment to promoting inclusivity and accessibility in its external actions, particularly through initiatives like the Global Gateway. By investing in accessible digital, transport, and energy sectors, while strengthening health, education, and research, the EU can create a more equitable world that upholds human rights, gender equality, and social inclusion.
