Digital accessibility is essential in the design of inclusive educational environments that respond to the needs of students with disabilities. This study aims to analyse its impact on learning through a descriptive documentary methodology, based on 16 scientific articles obtained from databases such as PubMed, Scopus and Scielo. In this context, teachers act as mediators and leaders of change, facilitating access to technologies, designing personalised learning experiences and promoting an inclusive culture that overcomes barriers in the classroom. Examining the impact of digital accessibility not only addresses the urgency of reducing educational gaps in vulnerable contexts, such as Ecuador's, but also promotes equitable education that ensures the full participation of all students, based on the principles of equity, autonomy and inclusion.
