Accessibility Statement

We are committed to ensuring that our content and publishing platform are accessible to all users, regardless of ability, disability, or the technologies they use. Our goal is to remove barriers to information and foster inclusive academic communication for authors, reviewers, editors, and readers alike.

1. Web Accessibility

We strive to make our journal website accessible and usable for everyone by:

• Following best practices outlined in the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1.

• Ensuring compatibility with assistive technologies such as screen readers, keyboard navigation, and screen magnifiers.

• Using clear, structured headings and readable fonts.

• Providing alt-text for images and graphics where applicable.

2. Accessible Article Formats

All published articles are available in PDF format. We aim to ensure that these files:

• Are machine-readable (OCR-enabled)

• Use logical heading structures and metadata

• Can be navigated easily using screen readers

Upon request, we will make every effort to provide alternative formats (e.g., HTML, audio) to meet the needs of users with specific accessibility requirements.

3. Submission System Accessibility

We are working to ensure that our manuscript submission and peer review platform is accessible to all users. If you encounter any barriers during submission or review, please contact the editorial office so we can offer alternative solutions or support.

4. Inclusive Language

IJVCDC encourages all authors and editors to use inclusive and respectful language that avoids bias, discrimination, or stereotyping on the basis of gender, race, ethnicity, disability, age, or other identity characteristics.

5. Feedback and Requests

We welcome feedback from users regarding accessibility. If you experience any difficulties accessing content or using our website, or if you require a specific format, please contact us: ijvcdc@binus.edu
