NAME:
Accessibility, Social Inclusion and Universal Design: Everything to See
“Accessibility is a right, not a privilege”, William Loughborough.
The dictionary tells us that “accessibility” is a noun that denotes the quality of being accessible; “accessible”, in turn, is an adjective that indicates what can be easily reached; which is within reach. In the area of Disability, when this term began to be used, it was restricted to the built environment and designated the elimination of architectural barriers. In fact, the most frequently used expression was “breaking barriers”, as it was understood that the person was referring to architectural barriers.
The feeling that people had (both people with disabilities and family, friends and professionals) was very negative: a city was seen as a dangerous place, full of traps and obstacles to be faced, which required willingness and patience, all morning. Nothing was easy, nothing was possible. Ricardo Ferraz's illustration brilliantly translates the perception and feeling of that time.
