Abstract

Astronomy is the most fascinating science for the general public, and one of the most interdisciplinary existing subjects. This makes Astronomy an ideal subject to work on accessibility because through the teaching of Astronomy we can access a wide range of other topics. The population with disabilities is large, with high rates of unemployment. The main objective of CAI is this population, even in the most early stages of education. We are looking to provide accessible resources for the students with disabilities and reduce the gap that already exists in the professional field of Astronomy in our region, the Caribbean.
