Evidence snapshot for Singapore

Singapore has pursued a coordinated, whole-of-government approach to social inclusion across multiple domains. The Singapore White Paper on Women's Development (2022) established 25 cross-ministry actions on gender equality based on consultation with 6,000+ participants, while SG Enable's Assistive Technology Fund & Enabling Masterplan 2030 targets 100% WCAG 2.1 AA compliance for government websites by 2030 (from a 61% baseline) and subsidises assistive devices up to 90% cost. GovTech's A11y Team raised the share of fully accessible high-traffic government websites from 61% (2022) to 73% (2023) through manual testing with disabled testers, and ScamShield blacklisted 120,000+ scam entities while contributing to a near-25% decline in national scam losses in 2025—though losses of $913.1 million that year show the problem remains substantial.
