World Science U, a program of the World Science Foundation, d/b/a World Science Festival (hereinafter referred to as “World Science U,” “us,” “we,” “our,” or “Company”) is committed to making our website (the “Services”) as accessible as possible to people with special needs, including those with visual, hearing, cognitive and motor impairments. While we strive to provide accessibility and usability for users, it may not be possible in all areas of the website with current technology and other restrictions.

We always make sure that our website follows best accessibility practices by following the principles of universal design. This ensures the site is flexible and adaptable to different users’ needs or preferences and is accessible through a variety of different technologies, including mobile devices or assistive technologies.

  • Perceivable: Information and user interface components must be presentable to users in ways they can perceive.
  • Operable: User interface components and navigation must be operable.
  • Understandable: Information and the operation of user interface must be understandable.
  • Robust: Content must be robust enough that it can be interpreted reliably by a wide variety of user agents, including assistive technologies.
