Accessibility statement

Accessibility

We want everyone to be able to read and use the data in this story — whether you use a keyboard, a screen reader, screen magnification or a slow connection.

The conformance status reflects internal testing during development. Text in square brackets will be updated after an external audit.

Our target

This website is designed to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at Level AA in both the Thai and English editions. Current status: partially conformant, because of the limitations listed below.

What we have done

  • Everything works with a keyboard, with a “Skip to main content” link and clearly visible focus outlines.
  • Pages use proper headings and landmarks, with a single main heading per page.
  • Every chart is an SVG with a text summary and a data table you can open (“View data table”).
  • Colour is never the only cue: statuses and categories always carry a label or symbol, and text meets the 4.5:1 contrast ratio.
  • We respect your system’s “reduce motion” setting: animations stop and numbers show their final values straight away. Auto-playing animations have a pause button.
  • On mobile, buttons and links have touch targets of at least 44 × 44 pixels, and text can be enlarged to 200% without horizontal scrolling.
  • Every field on the contact form has a label, and errors are announced as text linked to the field.
  • The page language (lang) is set so screen readers pronounce Thai and English correctly.

Known limitations

  • The interactive map has limited screen-reader support. The map page therefore offers a district list and data table as an alternative, and the same datasets can be downloaded from Data & sources.
  • The fire-season scrollytelling chapter changes visuals as you scroll. All of its content can be read in order without the animation.
  • Downloadable files (PDF, PPTX, infographic images) have not all been checked for accessibility yet [to be checked before publication]. Key text in images is also available on the web pages.
  • Third-party documents we reference may not meet accessibility standards; this is outside our control.
  • Current illustrations are AI-generated and treated as decorative (no alt text). When they are replaced with real photography, meaningful descriptions will be added.

How we tested

We tested with a keyboard, automated checkers and screen readers [NVDA on Windows, VoiceOver on macOS and iOS, TalkBack on Android] at screen widths from 360 to 1440 pixels. [External audit results.]
