‘Survival of the Fittest’
Those who are better than others capable to satisfy their information needs in an effective and efficient way, are more capable to survive and develop themselves than … those with less advantageous traits ...
After Charles Darwin
"...it is not the strongest of the species that survive, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change...“
Therefore a need to be ‘Information Literate’

World report on disability
About 15% of the world's population lives with some form of disability, of whom 2-4% experience significant difficulties in functioning. The global disability prevalence is higher than previous WHO estimates, which date from the 1970s and suggested a figure of around 10%. This global estimate for disability is on the rise due to population ageing and the rapid spread of chronic diseases, as well as improvements in the methodologies used to measure disability.

E-Accessibility
Refers to the ease of use of information and communication technologies (ICTs), such as the Internet, by people with disabilities. Web sites need to be developed so that disabled users can access the information. For example: for people who are blind, web sites need to be able to be interpreted by
programmes which read text aloud and describe any visual images; for people who have low vision, web pages need adjustable sized fonts
and sharply contrasting colours; and for people who are deaf or hard of hearing, audio content should be
accompanied by text versions of the dialogue. Sign language video can also help make audio content more accessible.
