Web accessibility for the elderly

Abstract

In today's digitized world, web accessibility has become a pressing need to ensure that all users, regardless of their abilities, can fully enjoy the vast online content. By exploring accessibility principles, guidelines, and examples of best practices, it becomes clear that this approach promotes inclusivity and results in a more rewarding user experience for everyone. From colour contrast and text readability to simplified navigation and compatibility with assistive technologies, web accessibility not only meets an ethical obligation but also represents an opportunity to create more accessible and inclusive digital experiences, empowering all users to engage the web, for all of the age groups.
