Web/Mobile App Accessibility is to make sure that the contents of websites and mobile applications are available for all, including not only persons with disabilities but also persons with specific difficulties such as the elderly and persons beset with colour-blindness, cognitive and physical issues such as dyslexia, epilepsy, etc. An accessible website or mobile application not only helps deliver messages wider across but also improves the general usability for all users. It also helps to build a caring and inclusive society. Over the years, the Government has been actively promoting web/mobile app accessibility to facilitate persons with disabilities to access online information and services and enhance their user experience.

This year, CareER is honoured to receive continuous support from the Deutsche Bank to launch the third year of Scholarship Programme - Deutsche Bank - CareER Born to Be Scholarship Programme.  The Scholarship aims to give recognition to students with disabilities/special educational needs (SENs) in the pursuit of excellence in serving the community and achievement in extracurricular activities and their willingness to challenge themselves to experience new exposure. Academic achievement is NOT the main focus in terms of selection criteria. 

Have you ever dived into the world of Special Education Needs (SEN)? How was your experience in interacting with people who are labelled as “special”? If you have never had such trial before, or would like to understand them more, we now proudly present to you the “Virtual Diversity SENcation” - it would be an empathy journey to step into their shoes, as well as an eye-opening experience to feel how diverse human beings are.

In this programme, you will get an excellent opportunity to get along with students with SEN and students all around the world. In this virtual journey, you are going to gain inspiring stories and meet new friends through the mission challenges and online seminars - let’s take the initiative to build an inclusive and diversified university community in this fun and fruitful programme!
