Web accessibility is about providing equal access to information for everyone.
At Georgetown, we strive to be women and men for others. By ensuring that our web content is accessible to everyone, we build an inclusive web experience that is mindful of individuals' differing needs and ways of interacting with our sites.
What is web accessibility?
Web accessibility means that all content on your website should be consumable by every visitor, regardless of ability. Many website visitors use assistive technologies like screenreaders, magnifiers, and Braille terminals to browse web content. At Georgetown, all websites should be accessible.
