Declaration on accessibility

The Global Policy Forum (GPF) Europe endeavors to make its website and online offers accessible in compliance with the requirements of the Ordinance on the Creation of Barrier-free Information Technology in accordance with the Disability Equality Act of North Rhine-Westphalia (Barrier-free Information Technology Ordinance of North Rhine-Westphalia - BITV NRW, implementation of Directive (EU) 2016/2102 of the European Parliament and of the Council).

The following declaration on accessibility documents the implementation status for the following websites: www.globalpolicy.orgwww.2030agenda.de, www.2030spotlight.org, www.2030report.de, www.reflectiongroup.org, in accordance with BITV NRW.

 

Status of compliance with the requirements

Due to the following incompatibilities, these websites are only partially compatible with the Ordinance on the Creation of Accessible Information Technology in accordance with the Disability Equality Act of North Rhine-Westphalia (BITV NRW) and EU Directive 2016/2102.

 

Content that is not accessible

The content listed below is not accessible for the following reasons:

- PDF documents embedded and linked in the website

- Videos embedded in the website

- Web forms embedded in the website (only accessible in individual cases)

- Social media feeds embedded in the website

- Newsletters

- Individual pages are not fully accessible for editorial reasons

Reasons:

Due to the large number of PDF documents and forms provided, it has not yet been possible to convert these into an accessible format.

As the websites are maintained by different authors, there may also be editorial barriers on individual pages (e.g. alt tags not set for images). The site authors will gradually receive introductory training on how to ensure accessibility when creating editorial content.
