Accessibility
We consider it important that everyone can make proper use of our website, including those with a temporary or permanent disability. That is why we continuously strive to improve the website’s accessibility.
The Dutch Digital Government Act (Wdo) stipulates that all government websites must conform to the accessibility guidelines (EN 301 549 / WCAG 2.1). Furthermore, we are required to publish an Accessibility Statement to this effect.
Accessibility Statement
An Accessibility Statement has been drawn up for this website, https://klimaatadaptatienederland.nl.
- The current status is: B.
- View the progress via Zó digitoegankelijk is website Kennisportaal Klimaatadaptatie | Dashboard DigiToegankelijk [in Dutch].
- The statement is based on the most recent research report on digital accessibility (pdf, 347 kB).
What we are doing to improve accessibility
We are working on the accessibility of our websites in various ways:
- Accessible from the start: With new websites, accessibility is already considered in the design and construction phases. Accessibility is also taken into account when writing content and posting images.
- Independent research: Experts regularly study (parts of) the website. Any problems encountered are resolved in the best possible manner.
- Knowledge and training: Our staff engage in training courses and e-learning on digital accessibility. Thus, they know what to look out for in their jobs.
PDF documents
This website also features PDF documents, some of which are not yet fully accessible. Older PDF documents are no longer adapted.
