Accessibility of health-related information for people with disabilities.

Health information disseminated to the general public has little or no impact on people with disabilities. To reach these audiences without discrimination, INPES began in 2008 to adapt its information tools, initially for people with visual or hearing impairments. This initiative is funded by the National Solidarity Fund for Autonomy, with which a partnership agreement has been signed. More broadly, this approach aligns with the guidelines set forth by the law of February 11, 2005, which establishes this principle of accessibility.
