  • Abstract:
  • Accessibility in human-computer interaction (HCI) and interaction design is essential for creating inclusive digital experiences that accommodate users of all abilities. This paper explores accessibility’s vital role in fostering equity and usability, meeting the needs of individuals with disabilities while fulfilling legal and ethical responsibilities. By following accessibility principles, designers expand product functionality and extend their reach to broader audiences. This study addresses core aspects, including adherence to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG), application of Universal Design principles, and integration of assistive technologies such as screen readers. It also discusses common challenges, including technical constraints and misconceptions about accessibility costs and complexities. Through literature reviews and case studies, this research highlights effective frameworks and insights from successful and flawed implementations. The findings underscore the importance of embedding accessibility into the design process from the outset, advocating for inclusivity as a fundamental design priority.
