Enabling Accessible Publishing: A Typefi initiative
Typefi’s vision is to ensure a vibrant, sustainable, and inclusive publishing community through innovative solutions. One way we work towards achieving this is to support our customers in producing publications that are widely accessible to a broad audience.
The Enabling Accessible Publishing program provides free Typefi software and services to not-for-profit, volunteer-driven organisations that are producing content in accessible formats for people living with visual, auditory, physical, or cognitive disabilities.
Launched in late 2018 to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, Enabling Accessible Publishing aims to help create an inclusive society where information is freely accessible to all.
