In Brazil, accessibility (acessibilidade) has become increasingly important in public policy following the ratification of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. The term 'seção acessível' is commonly used in shopping centers, public buildings, and transportation systems. In the USA, this concept is closely tied to the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), making accessible sections a legal requirement in most public spaces.
