Accessibility

We want as many people as possible to be able to use this website.

We aim to meet the latest standard of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines at level AA. Meeting accessibility guidelines is an ongoing process and we are consistently working to improve this.

This website is made up of:

• Software that is designed and controlled by Delib, for example the overall structure and the look and feel of the pages.
• Content that has been added by NHMRC, for example most of the information, including words, pictures and documents.

Delib develops and tests the software to support:

• Zooming in up to 200% without the text spilling off the screen.
• Navigating the website using just a keyboard.
• Navigating the website using speech recognition software.
• Listening to the website using a screen reader.

Delib test the software against the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines V2.1 AA standard. Improvements to the software are released regularly. Any changes made to the software as a part of that process are tested internally in advance of release for compliance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines.
