WHAT PREVENTS DIGITAL PARTICIPATION FOR PEOPLE WITH AUTISM?

Many autistic people are excluded from digital spaces due to sensory overload, confusing interfaces, and lack of communication alternatives.

“Every time I log in, I feel like my brain is under attack,” says Paul, a student overwhelmed by flashing ads and chaotic layouts.

Marah adds, “If there is no chat or written option, I cannot participate.” These barriers can make it impossible to study, work, or access essential services.
