What we do about known issues

We work to achieve and maintain WCAG 2.1 AA standards, but it is not always possible for all our content to be accessible. Ag4impact.org is mainly an archive website hosting data of our project for years 2014 to 2017. Where content is not accessible, we will state a reason, warn users and offer alternatives.

Technical information about this website’s accessibility

The research team that created the ag4impact.org is committed to making its website accessible in accordance with the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) (No. 2) Accessibility Regulations 2018.

This website is partially compliant with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.1 AA standard, due to the known issues listed below.

Non accessible content

The content that is not accessible is outlined below with details of:

  • Most pages fail colour contrast standards
  • Website has missing text alternatives (‘alt text’) for non-text content
  • There are no transcripts for audio and video
  • There are no captions for videos
  • Not all pages can be navigated and read by a screen reader nor keyboard.

Some documents and content are exempt from the regulations (such as live video content and PDFs or other documents published before 23 September 2018 if they’re not essential to providing our services), so we do not currently have any plans to make them accessible. But if you need to access information in one of these document types, you can contact us and ask for an alternative format.
