Acessibilidade na internet para pessoas com deficiência visual: uma análise das páginas web dos tribunais do Poder Judiciário tocantinense

Abstract

This is an eminently qualitative and explanatory research that has as its background human rights. Considering that free access to the Internet for all people today is a human right and therefore a challenge for its accomplishment for the society of information. Considering this premise, it is observed that being connected is a matter of belonging and of social separation par excellence. Thus, to care for the other is imperative, that is, it is necessary to see minorities and vulnerable groups with respect for their human dignity, normally seen indifferently as being subaltern. People with visual impairment, the subject of this work, have being through and still undergo a process of recognition, which sometimes lacks the implementation of public policies so that individuals have their rights respected. Given that there are already legal instruments regulating the accessibility on the Internet, this work aims to analyze whether there is accessibility in the initial web page of the courts of the Judiciary in Tocantins. Thus, the main international recommendations, Accessibility Guidelines for Web Content and the one adopted in Brazil, the Modelo de Acessibilidade em Governo Eletrônico (eMAG), are addressed. In fact, the accessibility check was based on the Brazilian model by using the Avaliador e Simulador de Acessibilidade em Sítios (ASES).
