Resumo

This article investigates the international standards adopted to offer accessibility on the Web, based on scientific works available in the literature, in order to present information that promotes the use and conformity of Accessibility standard among researchers, developers, designers, companies, among others.Thus, we performed an analysis of the articles found in the main scientific databases, which confirmed the growth of the internationally developed standards WCAG 1.0, WCAG 2.0, section 508 as the main guidelines for accessibility to Web content.It was also possible to observe a higher concentration of publications in countries such as the United States, Spain, Great Britain, Brazil and Australia, and it is relevant to consider that in the United States, research has focused on educational sites, while in Spain, most of the publications addressed accessibility in commercial sites, evidencing a tendency towards democratization of accessibility with a view to the care of people with disabilities.Brazil discusses the theme contemplating non-governmental, educational initiatives and the legislation.The study also pointed out that making the web accessible and usable to a diverse audience is a considerable challenge.
