Charter Towards an Accessible Municipality
We launched a charter as a means of inviting municipalities to adopt a structured approach in order to achieve a more inclusive and accessible community. An accessible municipality is a municipality where everyone has equal and independent access to the buildings, public space, services and communication. Everyone can live, learn, work, carry out daily activities, move around and relax in a comfortable, high-quality way and up to an old age. Also people with a visible or invisible disability. We developed a framework for an integral and integrated local municipal accessibility policy in close cooperation with disability experts by experience, aldermen and employees of municipalities. We resolutely opt for a structural approach from the start of each collaboration, with the principles of Universal Design in mind. We implement a holistic vision on accessibility in municipalities. We transcend the ad hoc approach and apply accessibility in all its facets. It is a quality condition and a permanent focus.
