Advocates for people with disabilities in Serbia are highlighting the challenges individuals with intellectual disabilities face when navigating complex administrative processes. They assert that accessible information is a fundamental right, not a privilege, and crucial for independent living and participation in society. The initiative emphasizes that a lack of accessible information effectively excludes this population from fully exercising their rights and accessing essential services. Currently, many administrative procedures and public information remain inaccessible due to complex language and formats. The group is calling for systemic changes to ensure information is provided in easily understandable formats, such as plain language and visual aids. This push aims to promote inclusivity and empower individuals with intellectual disabilities to live more autonomous lives. The initiative seeks to raise awareness and advocate for policy changes to address this ongoing issue.
