Disability-friendly Website Design with Recommendation System

There are various flagship schemes launched by both the government of India and the state of Goa for persons with disabilities (PwD). However, many people with disabilities and their caregivers are not aware of these schemes and are thus unable to benefit from them. The Central Government website that was available for this purpose was difficult to navigate, lacking a proper user interface, and thus the limiting accessibility features may have led to a poor user experience. To tackle this issue, a web-based application was designed with a good UI/UX (User Interface/User Experience) that was easy to navigate through and with features that included a screen reader, color contrast, bigger text, and other accessibility features for PwD. The schemes were categorized based on education, healthcare, and finance. Furthermore, the system recommends schemes to the user based on factors such as disability type, percentage of disability, age, family income, and categories such as education, finance, and healthcare.
