Abstract :
This paper introduces and describes the current ICT accessibility policy and program in South Korea including web accessibility, mobile accessibility and media accessibility for building an inclusive society. Although law and regulation describe the rights for vulnerable people to access many different formats of information technology, the assurance of ICT accessibility in technology and service has not been guaranteed. Several recommendations to promote ICT accessibility for vulnerable people are proposed in this paper.
