The Salzburg Museum is demonstrating a different approach: Since 2015, all introductory texts and accompanying materials for exhibitions have been consistently written in easy-to-understand language \u2013 not as a special solution, but as a regular component of the exhibition concept.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Three aspects make the project particularly exemplary:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First, the texts in easy-to-read language are aimed at all visitors, not just a specific target group. This makes the museum experience more understandable, inclusive, and accessible for everyone. A study shows that 49% of visitors actively use these texts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Second, the quality standards are high. The texts are written at language level A2, reviewed by a test group, and certified with the capito seal of quality for easy language. This ensures that the content is truly understandable and appropriate for the target group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Third, the project has a lasting impact. The museum shares its experiences through a digital handbook, as well as through specialist lectures and workshops. This paves the way for other cultural institutions to move toward accessible communication. The work is funded 80% by state funding and 20% by its own resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The project was awarded the Zero Project Award, more information <a href=\"https:\/\/zeroproject.org\/view\/project\/109bd3ea-9b17-eb11-a813-000d3ab9b226\">here<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Complex texts in museums can become a barrier \u2013 especially for people with learning disabilities.
