Finished

We should adapt so it's compliant with accessibility norms set by the EU : https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/FR/TXT/?uri=CELEX:32016L2102

We've runned a automated testing software Decidim is currently scoring 75%.

To go about this we should contract an audit and work on an action plan based on its recommendation.

Institutions increasingly demand this, our client at Loire Atlantique would be willing to finance the audit and has a contact to perform it.

The development of this proposal has finished

  • Has been reviewed by Decidim Product and complies with the Social Contract
  • It is funded by BOSA (Belgium)
  • Developed by Open Source Politics 
  • Available in release 0.22 via #5684

Our client Loire-Atlantique went through with the audit. We have it in French for now and are planning to translate it in English as soon as possible.

Here is a tool developed by the Belgium Federal State that can analyse a website accessibility and give instruction to correct the issues raised : https://openfed.github.io/AccessibilityCheck/

@carol at OSP we'd like to move forward with this as it's becoming a pressing issue. Could we discuss a way to join forces on this one ?

@paarals @microstudi @josepjaume is it also an item on your roadmap ?

Hello folks, we at bluenove have added a bunch of modifications to decidim for accessibility and I'm now in the process of submitting them.

However our contractor for this has realized their changes by using a regular decidim app and putting the changes there so it's taking time. Any help appreciated.

My WIP PR is here: https://github.com/ChloeTigre/decidim/pull/1
my clone of the contractor repo is here and it's a little confusing for me: https://github.com/ChloeTigre/decidim-accessible

if you can help, much appresh.
