Abstract: Museums and cultural spaces must be democratically accessible throughout society, including people with disabilities and reduced mobility, who represent a large part of the world's population. In Brazil, accessibility in museums is still moving at a slower pace compared to the world, which occurs for several reasons, among them, the constant and growing cut of resources for investment in culture in the country. The Brazilian Institute of Museums (IBRAM) developed a risk management program in museums that was launched in 2013, and updated in 2021, which still does not address accessibility within risk management and fails to direct greater care to this public in risk management, which interferes with the safety of these people and the safety of museum spaces.
