Accessibility Statement

Last reviewed: 1 November 2026

Wakinga is a community heritage project. We want everyone — including people who use screen readers, keyboard navigation, or magnification — to be able to read and navigate this site.

Conformance target

We aim to meet WCAG 2.2 Level AA. This is the current international standard for accessible web content.

What we've done

• Semantic HTML with a single, meaningful H1 per page
• Text contrast tested against the AA threshold (4.5:1 for body, 3:1 for large)
• All interactive elements reachable by keyboard
• Visible focus indicators
• Skip-to-content link for screen-reader and keyboard users
• Respects the operating system's "reduce motion" preference
• Alt text on every meaningful image; decorative images marked aria-hidden
• Touch targets sized to at least 24×24 CSS pixels
• Native <details> for expandable sections (works without JavaScript)

Known limitations

We are a small team and this site is early-stage. If you find a barrier, please tell us — we want to fix it. Known gaps we are aware of:

• Some animations may not pause on demand (they do respect reduce-motion)
• Only English is available; a Swahili translation is planned
