Domain Names: NIC Argentina – Joint work to promote web accessibility in ‘.ar’ sites.’

Within the framework of the World Day to Promote Web Accessibility Awareness, an agreement was signed between the Legal and Technical Secretariat of the Presidency of the Nation and the National Agency for Disability (ANDIS by its Spanish acronym) to guarantee access for all persons with disabilities to Internet sites with the ‘.ar’ domain.
