About Mission Accessibility
Mission Accessibility is an initiative aimed at progressively dismantling the barriers faced by persons with disabilities in accessing apps and websites in India. We share the conviction that digital accessibility is a right that every person with a disability in India must be able to enjoy. We seek to constructively engage with the developers of platforms that are inaccessible to disabled users and empower such users to voice their concerns in a productive and practically useful fashion.
