L'Accessibilité des bâtiments publics (CNFPT) - Badge de réussite
Ce badge est destiné aux apprenants ayant suivi avec succès la formation. L’inclusion des personnes en situation de handicap, et plus généralement des personnes à mobilité réduite, est un enjeu de société qui s’inscrit dans les objectifs de transition écologique et solidaire. L’accessibilité est le pendant technique de cette inclusion : en rendant accessibles les bâtiments on s’assure que toute personne, quelles que soient ses capacités physiques, sensorielles ou intellectuelles, est en mesure d’accéder aux services et aux prestations proposées, et ce dans la plus grande autonomie possible. L’accessibilité est donc un prérequis à l’égalité de traitement et d’accès à la citoyenneté, à l’éducation, la justice ou la culture. Depuis la loi pour l’égalité des droits et des chances, la participation et la citoyenneté des personnes handicapées du 11 février 2005, dite loi handicap, la grande majorité des établissements recevant du public doivent être rendus accessibles. La mise en accessibilité d’un parc de bâtiments nécessite la mise en œuvre d’une stratégie et d’outils spécifiques de suivi.
