There are very few options in the SEE region that allow people to view assistive technologies, and to determine through trial and error whether they are suited to their specific needs.

Finally, the report demonstrates that SEE countries have before them a wide menu of possible actions to support e-Accessibility. It is a good time to take stock of strengths and weaknesses, to identify the potential, and to implement activities at the regional level linked to European Union programmes, standards and developments. A number of actions proposed in this report focus on regional cooperation not just among governments through the e-SEE Initiative but also with NGOs and the private sector.
