DAISY AND DEVELOPING COUNTRIES PERSPECTIVE BY DIPENDRA MANOCHA

DAISY CONSORTIUM The DAISY Consortium envisions a world where people with print disabilities have equal access to information and knowledge, without delay or additional expense. The DAISY Consortium's mission is to develop and promote international standards and technologies which enable equal access to information and knowledge by all people with print disabilities and which also benefit the wider community.

ONE WORLD FOR ALL Everyone including persons with disabilities: Study together in the same school Work together in the same office Get information from the same web site Need same information and books as everyone else

STANDARDS: KEY TO ACCESSIBILITY Developers cannot understand capabilities or limitations of every one Follow standards with proven track record on accessibility for all DAISY for documents and publications: EPub for electronic document distribution format: Web Content Accessibility guidelines for web site user interface: Unicode for Local Language Representation:

ONE SOURCE; MULTIPLE DISTRIBUTION FORMATS DAISY DTBOOK-XML is source document for distribution formats such as: Hard copy print book EPUB e-text book Braille book Talking Book Large Print Book

SITUATION IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES 90% of population with print disability live in developing countries Solutions not available in local languages Solutions not affordable Services delivered by many small organizations
