Subject: Mandated accessibility standards for Central/South America?
No previous message | No next message

Hi Melody,

In Brazil, there are no government Web accessibilidty standards yet. There
is a law about Internet accessibility and the Brazilian e-Government
Department is writing the standards to make people adhere to it. Also, a
group of professionals is working to colaborate with the Brazilian
National Standards Association.
As you see, we are in the beginning...

We have several Web sites that service our customers in Central and South
America...are there any government-mandated accessibility standards in any
of the countries in Central and South American?

Thank you.

Melody
