摘要
This paper presents the results of a study evaluating the accessibility of some major portals of the Peruvian Government. The accessibility evaluation was made in compliance with web accessibility priorities addressed in Peruvian law, as well as the guidelines established by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) in its WCAG 1.0 and WCAG 2.0 recommendations. To this aim, five portals of greatest importance and with highest levels of access during the period of investigation were identified. Manual and automatic tools were used to obtain the results. These revealed the barriers and gaps in information access that were encountered by people with disabilities.
