The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) are developed through the W3C (World Wide Web Consortium) process, in collaboration with individuals and organizations around the globe. The goal is to provide a single, shared standard for web content accessibility that addresses the needs of individuals, organizations, and governments worldwide.

The WCAG documents offer guidance on how to make web content more accessible to people with disabilities. In this context, “web content” typically refers to the information found on a web page or within a web application, including text, images, forms, multimedia, and interactive elements.
