To make it easy for blind and partially sighted people to access and use a public facility, it is essential to ensure that the route from the entrance to the reception desk is as short and easy as possible. If the counter is not directly at the entrance, the route can be marked in a very simple way.

By 11 December 2025, all public buildings must be accessible to people with disabilities, but a lack of data on current accessibility and ignorance of the law threaten the timely implementation of the necessary adaptations.

On 14 October 2024, the National Council held a consultation on mobility and web accessibility for people with disabilities and the elderly, where a plan for a single national platform "The Story of Five Spaces" was presented. The platform, funded by the Ministry of Environment, Climate and Energy, will bring together data on accessibility of indoor spaces, the outdoor built environment, online content, on-call transport and home exercise technologies. The aim is to improve quality of life by providing better access to services and information. The event highlighted the importance of including people with disabilities and older people in society and the need for accessible infrastructure for all.
 

The Urban Institute of the Republic of Slovenia (UIRS) focuses on research, awareness-raising and the development of solutions to improve the accessibility of public spaces and buildings. It participates in the preparation of manuals, the organisation of workshops and in national and international projects promoting universal design. UIRS analyses existing accessibility of buildings, proposes improvements and develops digital platforms for collecting accessibility data. Their work brings together science, practice and legislation, with the aim of creating an inclusive society for all citizens.
