In the pursuit to make the information contained in this web site available to all, the Embassy of the United States in New Zealand has developed its web site to meet ADA Level A Conformance (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0).

As part of achieving Level A Conformance, for the site, we have added text equivalents for all non-text content. We have also added ALT tags so as to enable speech synthesizer software to read text. Our text and narratives are all written in fonts and sizes that allow easy readability. Finally, we have created a text-based menu system which offers our end-users an alternative to using our main navigation bar written in javascript.

For more information on Level A conformance guidelines, please refer to World Wide Web Consortium or call 213-892-1590 for more information.
