On October 1, 2021, The State Standard «Clear language. General Provisions» was put into effect.

The main goal of creating Gosstandart is to promote and create a barrier-free communication environment in the Republic of Belarus for people who have difficulty understanding information.

The standard provides the basic rules for constructing and presenting information in a clear language, including the location of text on the page, size, color, font features, requirements for illustrations, websites, audio information.

Due to the introduction of the “clear language” methodology, which is innovative for Belarus, each person, including a person with a disability, has the opportunity to gain access to information that determines the scope of his social interaction, professional or labor employment, satisfaction of his needs, which makes a significant contribution to achievement by the Republic of Belarus of Sustainable Development Goals 10 and other SDGs.
