Kartunet shapes disability talent into drivers of digital accessibility through knowledge, practice, and community collaboration.
Rooted in a literacy community founded and managed by disability talents since 2006, Kartunet is not just a community, but living proof that accessibility barriers are design problems, not capability issues. We have transformed into a Digital Accessibility Transformation Accelerator to forge fellow disability talents into drivers of digital inclusion. From real-world experience and technical expertise, we design inclusion standards that transcend disability barriers.
