For a long time, students with disabilities were placed on the sidelines of education and were treated in isolation or excluded from the educational process. With the appreciation of human rights and the concept of citizenship, several struggles gained strength to overcome situations of inequalities and discrimination to guarantee conditions of accessibility at different levels of education. With the policies for reservation of vacancies in Higher Education, this theme has become essential in the field of research in Special Education. One of the highlights of the Inclusion Policies at this level of education was the Include Program, built on three pillars: Infrastructure; Teacher training; Curriculum and information. Therefore, this research intends to analyze and explore the accessibility conditions on the websites of Federal Public Universities in the Midwest region of Brazil. The methodology used was of a qualitative nature with a descriptive-analytical character, as it was an exploratory study of university websites and documental analysis of legislation aimed at digital accessibility. The analysis of the information was based on the Historical-Cultural perspective. The documents analyzed were the Institutional Development Plans made available on the official websites of the universities, documents that informed about the institutional policies of the Universities, identifying the conditions of digital accessibility for students with disabilities in the researched websites. It was concluded that federal universities strive to comply with the new ABNT NBR 9050:2020 standard, which is equivalent to the set ABNT NBR 9050:2015 and Amendment 1, of 08.03.2020, which cancels and replaces ABNT NBR 9050:2015, that emphasize changes to structural accessibility, leaving digital accessibility aside. In this way, investments are needed in the training of servers aimed at assisting institutional websites and frequent maintenance of websites following the W3C Web Accessibility Booklet, which requires changes in the institutional system of universities in relation to digital accessibility. Analyzes carried out on the websites of the universities surveyed show that they are not fully accessible for people with disabilities.
