ABSTRACT
The aim of this research is to develop and implement Arabic accessibility resources for developers, web content managers and designers. The Arabic guidelines will not only assist Arabian developers and designers for a deep understanding of accessibility features, but also to apply these criteria on their Arabic websites in order to make them accessible to everyone including people with disabilities. The Arabic web accessibility guidelines will be designed to be reachable to all developers and designers in the Middle East including Kuwait.
