What is digital accessibility?

Digital accessibility means that everyone should have equal access to digital services, including users with visual, auditory, motor or cognitive disabilities. For instance, the content should be easy to read and understand, and easily accesible through various aids.

The law on accessibility to digital public service

The websites of all public sector authorities must conform to the Swedish law on accessibility to digital public service, which applies to unimeetgothenburg.com. The law is based on the international standard for web content accessibility WCAG 2.1 level AA.

How accessible is unimeetgothenburg.com?

We know that parts of the website are not entirely accessible, and we are working towards adjusting the following issues.

General issues

  • The website uses frames (iframes) on certain pages to display content from other websites. Some of these are not accessibility-adapted.
  • The website lacks an RSS-feed as well as other subscription possibilities.
  • There is no declaration of responsibility for domain names in the organisation, and certain services use external tools where we do not control the domain name.
  • Not all pages have a publication and last updated date.
  • There are no print buttons.

Issues when using the website without vision/with impaired vision/with impaired colour vision

  • Some interacive graphic elements are not large enough and lack alternative texts or labels. Also, the contrast between some elements and backgrounds is not high enough.
  • Some links on the website lack alternative texts or labels
  • Some images, logotypes and other non-text media lack alternative texts or labels.
  • There are some image-based texts rather than actual texts.
  • In some cases, regarding both text and other elements, the contrast between the elements and the backgrounds is too low. There is no possibility for the user to affect the website’s contrast.
  • Some headlines are uppercase.
  • The names of some files are not descriptive enough.
  • The website lacks breadcrumbs, a list of links to the parent pages of the current page, that help users find their place within the website.
