Right to Information Equality: Ensuring Equal Access for Sharing and Learning
The City of Augsburg is embarking on an exciting new project, DIWA 4.0, funded by the EU and led by the Office for Social Integration. The main focus of this project is to optimize the city's website, our website.de, and other communication channels to be more inclusive and accessible to all citizens, including those with language barriers and disabilities.
The HAKom, the Main Department of Communication in Augsburg, is responsible for implementing these changes. One of the key sub-projects, Sub-project 3, plans to implement measures for equal participation in the right to information and exchange. This includes making the city's communication channels barrier-free and strengthening them to ensure that the city's official information reaches all citizens in a way that is understood.
The project's focus remains on making the city's communication channels more inclusive. To achieve this, the team will use new digital tools and feedback from various target groups. For instance, the our website.de website will expand to include information in Easy-to-Read language and sign language. The Integreat app will be integrated on the city's website, providing valuable resources for newcomers.
Moreover, explainer videos will be created for certain applications with the City of Augsburg, and a digital translation tool will be implemented to help bridge language barriers. The HAKom ensures that information is accessible and tailored to different target groups.
The project also aims to promote equal participation for newcomers and respectful coexistence. By continually optimizing the city's website and other communication channels, the project team hopes to create a more inclusive and welcoming environment for all citizens of Augsburg.
The project will continue to use feedback from various target groups to achieve its goals. New digital tools and feedback from various target groups will support the project team in achieving these goals. The project team will work diligently to make the city's communication channels more inclusive, fostering a sense of belonging and respectful coexistence in Augsburg.
