Initiative for accessible web site for blind voters

Within the project Walk the talk with PWDs Center for Independent Living Serbia wrote to Ministry of State Administration and Local Self-Government to make their web site accessible for blind voters. They responded very promptly:

Regarding your address to the Ministry of State Administration and Local Self-Government in order to enable blind and partially sighted persons to electronically check that they are enrolled in the electoral roll, we inform that on the website of the Ministry - portal for checking the enrollment in the electoral roll https: //upit.birackispisak .gov.rs implemented the possibility to enter them via audio file - which will pronounce the letters from the picture, thus enabling blind and partially sighted persons to electronically check that they are enrolled in a single electoral roll, in order to be equal with the rest citizens exercised their electoral rights.

At the same time, we would like to mention that due to new circumstances, we postpone informing citizens about the advancement of the rights of blind and visually impaired persons, that is, after the state of emergency, we will inform voters that we have upgraded the Ministry's website in order to enable blind and partially sighted persons to access the Uniform Voters Register and carry out checks data.

Best regards,
