Welcome to the awardee video of Instituto Nacional Electoral (INE)´s accessible guidelines for Mexican elections, a winner of the 2019 Zero Project Award on Independent Living and Political Participation.
Instituto Nacional Electoral (INE), the government body that organizes elections in Mexico and works to create suitable conditions so that all groups can participate, has instituted a set of mandatory guidelines entitled the “Protocol for the Inclusion of Persons with Disabilities”. The guidelines include requirements for the availability of Braille ballots, improved physical access for people with mobility impairments, and polling stations in hospitals. In the July 2018 elections, approximately 90,000 voters benefitted from the protocol.
