Why is accessibility important?

Accessibility is important because it ensures that everyone, regardless of their abilities or disabilities, can engage with and benefit from digital content, products, and services. This includes people with visual, auditory, physical, or cognitive impairments, as well as those with temporary or situational limitations, such as people using assistive devices, non-native language speakers, or elderly individuals. By designing and developing accessible solutions, we can provide equal opportunities and equal access to information and resources for all members of society. Additionally, accessibility can also improve the overall user experience, search engine optimization, and legal compliance of digital products and services.
