The AREVA commitment to digital accessibility

The areva.com website is accessible. This means that any Internet user can access its content without difficulty, including users with handicaps that require special web browsers or technical aids.

For example, the site content is compatible with navigation tools such as text-to-speech and Braille displays, used by blind Internet users. Visually impaired users may adjust the site display to meet their needs (changing font size, colors, and contrast), and users who have lost the use of their hands may navigate without a mouse.
