    La Accesibilidad Web, tema de connotación universal, emerge como un aspecto impostergable debido a la digitalización incrementada por el aislamiento social, preventivo y obligatorio causada por la pandemia de COVID-19. La Accesibilidad Web puede abordarse desde distintas aristas, sean aspectos ingenieriles-tecnológicos o cuestiones sociales y profesionales. El artículo presenta un proceso centrado en la validación automática. El estudio se realiza a las páginas iniciales de una muestra de 13 sitios construidos para resolver situaciones problemáticas específicas. El análisis de los resultados determinó que la limitación para comprender es el factor más frecuente, seguido por la limitación de los miembros superiores, la limitación total para ver, la limitación grave para ver y las limitaciones derivadas de la edad. Los hallazgos dan cuenta la necesidad de avanzar en estos estudios, tendientes a concientizar y disminuir las barreras de acceso a la información para asegurar una sociedad del conocimiento inclusiva.

    Web Accessibility, a topic of universal connotation, emerges as an aspect that cannot be postponed due to the digitalization increased by the social, preventive and compulsory isolation caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Web Accessibility can be approached from different angles, be they engineering-technological aspects or social and professional issues. The article presents a process focused on automatic validation. The study is performed on the home pages of a sample of 13 sites built to solve specific problematic situations. The analysis of the results determined that the limitation to understand is the most frequent factor, followed by the limitation of the upper limbs, total limitation to see, severe limitation to see and limitations derived from age. The findings indicate the need to advance in these studies, aimed at raising awareness and reducing the barriers to access to information in order to ensure an inclusive knowledge society.
