"Users' experiences say that in Montenegro, when creating and developing websites, applications, electronic services and the like, there are rare examples of following E-accessibility standards, so in that sense not all possible formats are used that ensure various options and the possibility of user choice (audio format, enlarged format, contrast, adequate spacing, simple language, etc.) and which would ensure accessibility for different users, that is, respect the diversity of the human race", says Vujačić.

Events like Infinum Talks are an important contribution to improvements.

"Digital accessibility for people with disabilities could nowadays be equated with general information, access to services and goods, the right to education and development, work, acquisition of competences, exchange of experiences and many other important life issues.
