Web accessibility

Lund University’s websites are subject to the Law on Accessibility to Digital Public Services (European Union Web Accessibility Directive), which requires that both technology and content be accessible to visitors, regardless of any disabilities.

As a developer, the person responsible for, or publisher of a website, you need to understand how to make the website accessible to everyone.

On the Web accessibility web pages, you can read more about how the University’s websites and web-based systems can be made accessible, as well as get support on how to create accessible content.
