AB This paper introduces the AL-MUSACTRA platform, an initiative designed to democratize access to cultural heritage through digital innovation, specifically catering to the diverse needs of individuals with disabilities. Grounded in the universal right to leisure and culture, the platform is a direct response to the mandates of international conventions and the Sustainable Development Goals, with a focus on inclusivity, safety, resilience, and sustainable access to cultural and natural heritage. Despite the progress in accessible audiovisual translation, the challenge of ensuring universal access to cultural heritage persists, particularly for those with visual, hearing, and cognitive disabilities. The AL-MUSACTRA platform leverages the Drupal Content Management System to overcome these barriers, offering features such as audio descriptions, sign language videos, and simplified texts. This paper details the platform's development, highlighting its emphasis on web accessibility standards and its potential to serve as a model for similar initiatives globally.
