Universal Accessibility Pledge

To encourage premises which encounter hardships in retrofitting existing facilities to meet accessibility standards, the Universal Accessibility Pledge (UA Pledge) is introduced for these premises to show their commitment in actualising an enabling environment. In addition, premises that are not eligible for applying for the Award are also welcome to join the UA Pledge and share their innovative design(s) (if any) with wider community.

Interested parties may complete the form below to join the UA Pledge, describing how the current design of the facilities or services in your premises can support people with diverse needs. Completed form should be sent to the EOC by email (UDAS@eoc.org.hk). The EOC will assess and evaluate if the facilities or services provided by the company/ organisation align with Universal Design principles and are suitable for the UA Pledge. Companies/ organisations will be presented with an e-certificate as a recognition for their commitment after the pledge is validated by the EOC.
