Internet Health
Also known as: Web Health
A concept describing the overall state of the internet as a public resource, encompassing factors such as accessibility, privacy, security, openness, and digital inclusion. In the context of web accessibility, Internet Health refers specifically to how well the web serves people with disabilities, measured through large-scale evaluations of website compliance with accessibility standards. Regular monitoring of Internet Health allows researchers, policymakers, and advocates to track whether the web is becoming more or less accessible over time and to identify systemic barriers that affect users across many websites.
