IV. CHALLENGES
CHALLENGES
“The mirage of the wheelchair ramp”, universal
accessibility is often reduced to describe facilities or
amenities to assist people with impaired mobility.
The implementation of accessibility adjustments and
their proper maintenance requires the development of
an accessibility management system by the
Decentralized Autonomous Governments and political
decision to mobilize adequate funds.
URGENT NEEDS
The use of a
standardized
methodology
based on
international
norms
Gathering
comparable
data on universal
accessibility at the
regional level
Assessment and
creation of
universal
accessibility plans
at the regional
level
