Target Groups

The Higher education sector can benefit from the results of the AVTiA project because lecturers, university students and translators are provided with the necessary skills, competences and sources to teach and assess inclusion in audiovisual translation. The objective is thus, to generate attitude-change and raise higher education sector awareness on the need to ensure access to information to people with disabilities.
