A. M. In its commitment to promote digital accessibility and eliminate technological barriers, Claro Central America implements a new tool on its website, in order to facilitate navigation for people with visual disabilities, dyslexia and color blindness.
The website www.claro.com.sv of Claro El Salvador, and other countries in the region, integrates an accessibility menu that improves the browsing experience for all users, ensuring that more salvadorans can access information and services without barriers.
The new accessibility button on Claro’s website allows:
- Read aloud for the visually impaired
- High contrast mode and color adjustments, to facilitate navigation for users with color blindness.
- Optimized fonts and spacing to improve reading for people with dyslexia.
“At Claro, we believe in connectivity that transforms lives. We are committed to breaking down barriers so that every person, regardless of their conditions, can access information and digital services freely, easily and autonomously, thus promoting a more inclusive and equitable future”, said Claudia Trejo,Head of Public Relations of Claro El Salvador.
According to the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO), in Latin America and the Caribbean, the prevalence of moderate to severe visual impairment is 14.14%, while blindness is 2.94%. In addition, data from the World Health Organization (WHO) estimate that at least 1 in 10 people have some degree of dyslexia. Faced with this reality, Claro is committed to inclusive innovation with a functionality that improves the digital experience for everyone.
Web accessibility not only improves the browsing experience, but also promotes digital equity. According to the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), accessibility in digital platforms benefits more than 15% of the world’s population, including seniors and people with temporary or permanent difficulties.
With this initiative, Claro Central America reaffirms its leadership in innovation and social responsibility, ensuring that technology is a tool for inclusion and development for all.
