How accessible is the website?
The website is partially accessible. Some requirements have not yet been met.
Which sections are not accessible?
-
Not all text is in plain language
- Issue: Some text on the website is not yet in plain language. This makes it difficult for people with learning difficulties or limited German language skills to understand everything.
- Solution: We have already created a glossary in plain language. We are working on gradually offering more content in plain language. Important pages, such as the homepage, will be prioritized.
- Timeline: We are proceeding step by step. How quickly this happens depends on our staff and funding.
- Alternative: Contact us if you need help: Email: kultur@bezirksamt-neukoelln.de / Phone: 030 90239 2431
-
Missing information in German Sign Language (DGS)
- Problem: There are no videos in German Sign Language on the website. As a result, deaf people cannot easily understand important information.
- Solution: We plan to create videos in sign language, for example for the homepage and important information. These videos will be marked with an icon.
- Timeline: This solution cannot be implemented quickly at this time. We will provide an update on progress soon.
- Alternative: Contact us as indicated above.
