The continuous change that contemporary society is undergoing requires a deeper look into the multiple directions it hasundertaken, resulting from the sudden digitalization of the last years.Through this social and cultural renewal, the community undergoes profound changes which, if on the one hand bringgreat advantages, on the other enhance pre‐existing problems, further increasing the gap between individuals.This article aims to investigate, through critical reflection, the causes of the Digital Divide and the possible solutions. TheUniversal Design represents a fundamental modus operandi for creating an environment that is not only focused on ac‐cessibility but also and above all on usability, within which everyone, beyond their own peculiarities, has the possibility ofexpressing themselves without any obstacle.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
