Hi, I am researching accessibility on a municipal level and I would like to hear about accessibility initiatives regarding cities and municipal or regional government. We hear a lot about accessibility concerning larger scale administrations (federal, state or provincial depending on your zip code) but not a lot about what is happening locally. Aside from the standard accessibility statement, can anyone offer examples of cities that have, for example, included accessibility of ICTS or online information and services in their charters? Or cities that have adopted and enacted policies that benefit people with disabilities in that regard? Searching the Web, I came across this European initiative that awards cities that have championed accessibility for people with disabilities in the urban environment and one of their criteria was ICTs. http://ec.europa.eu/social/main.jsp?catId=882&langId=en Thanks in advance, Catherine -- Catherine Roy http://www.catherine-roy.net
