Work for inclusive, quality education and the reduction of inequalities is
among the prioritised lines of action promoted by the Sustainable Development
Goals of the United Nations (2015). In the context of higher education, persons
with sensory disabilities who study and work at universities face daily
accessibility challenges when interacting with their pervasive digital
environments. The ongoing UNIVAC research project aims to qualitatively
analyse the measures taken by Spanish universities to overcome such
challenges, as well as to explore areas of improvement in accessibility at
university. This paper presents the project’s aim and scope, and proposes the
adoption of the cross-disciplinary user journey approach as a form of
methodological innovation in accessibility research in higher education.
