Abstract
In emergent economies, the continued process of digitalizing the ICTs, summed up with some sociocultural particularies and porvety, contributes to cleave the society into two groups: the connected and the increasingly more disconnected or socially excluded. However, efforts to effectively narrow this kind of divide transcends the provision of access to web and other digital networks, mainly if the attention is focused on people with disabilities and lack of literacy. For these social groups, accessibility and intelligibility are the key barriers to e-society. A manner to mitigate then is the objective of an ongoing research project in which we are engaged and that comprises the elaboration and application of a methodology for developing solutions to e-inclusion in Brazil. This paper presents the central aspects of such an appoach, focusing on some activities which go beyond the connectivity provision and may help the most “excludeds” in bridging the divide.
 
En las economías emergentes, el continuo proceso de digitalización de las TICs, en adición a algunas particularidades socioculturales y la pobreza, contribuye a dividir la sociedad en dos grupos: los conectados y los cada vez más desconectados o socialmente excluidos. Sin embargo, esfuerzos para efectivamente estrechar esta división trasciende la provisión de acceso a la web y otras redes digitales, principalmente si la atención está enfocada a personas con discapacidades y analfabetismo. Para estos grupos sociales, la accesibilidad e inteligibilidad son barreras para el ingreso a una sociedad electrónica. Una manera de mitigar este problema es teniendo como objetivo una investigación de avanzada, la cual tenga un compromiso y contacto con la elaboración y aplicación de una metodología para el desarrollo de soluciones y de inclusión electrónica en Brasil. Este trabajo presenta los aspectos centrales de tal aproximación, enfoscándose en algunas actividades que van más allá de la conectividad, provisión y una posibilidad de conectar a los excluidos de éste sistema
