About us

“You can't be part of society if you're not present and you can't be present if you don't get to where life happens. Inclusion happens when you start breaking down barriers.”
Accessible Dispatch, NYC

Our goals

At Sitios, we want to live in an inclusive and non-discriminatory society. Because joy, vitality and innovation always arise when people with different experiences come together.

People with disabilities bring an important perspective. And this is relevant: Every fifth person in Switzerland is partially or temporarily disabled. Especially for people with disabilities, we want to create a world that is made for them.

Sitios is removing barriers with a digital platform on which information about the accessibility of buildings and mobility services is exchanged. Accessibility information is essential for people with disabilities when planning their trips and enables them to participate in social life. With the Disability Equality Act and the ratification of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, our goal is actually law. Still, there is still a lot to do — come on this journey with us!
