Accessibility

EthioWDS is built with accessibility in mind. We aim for WCAG 2.1 Level AA so government digital services are usable by everyone.

Our Commitment

  • Keyboard navigation and focus management
  • Sufficient color contrast and non-color-dependent cues
  • Screen reader–friendly markup and ARIA where needed
  • Resizable text and responsive layouts

Using Components Accessibly

Use semantic structure and the recommended attributes for labels and associations. Avoid removing focus outlines unless you replace them with a visible focus style.
