Konvencija o pravicah invalidov zahteva, da so vse informacije dostopne invalidom
v njim razumljivi obliki. Namen prispevka je evalvirati proces prirejanja Ustave
Republike Slovenije v lahko berljivo in razumljivo obliko s poudarkom na udeležbi
lektorjev z motnjami v duševnem razvoju. Štiri člene ustave smo priredile v dve
obliki, pri preverjanju pa smo ugotovile, da si lektorji želijo vseh informacij, ki so
v izvirnem besedilu člena, vendar v njim razumljivi obliki. Izrazili so željo, da bi
ob prvi različici priredbe, zvesti izvirnemu besedilu, imeli tudi razlagalno različico.
The Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities requires that all information
is accessible to people with disabilities in an understandable form. The
purpose of the paper is to evaluate the process of transforming the Constitution
of the Republic of Slovenia into an easy-to-read and understandable form and
verification of four articles, emphasizing the involvement of eight proofreaders
with intellectual disabilities. Four Articles of the Constitution were adapted in two
versions. We found that proofreaders want all the information from the original
text of the article, written in an understandable way. They expressed the desire to
have an interpretative version of the Article next to the adapted version of article,
written in easy-to-read form.
