I have removed two paragraphs because they appear to be copyrighted material:
– I don't see why all the links were removed. For example the ENAT-website contains lots of information on accessible tourism. Other pages like IBFT or NatKo contain useful stuff too (NatKo is only in German) but I really think that you should consider restoring the link to ENAT, afterall they are quite a big EU-project and should be included in Wikipedia for further reading.

- "improvements in medicine have allowed disabled people to live longer; improvements in equipment such as wheelchairs, hearing aids, or computers that speak for us allow us to be more active; entrepreneurs and other risk-takers with disabilities have started travel agencies, sports leagues, and outdoor expeditions expanding our imaginations and challenging us to ever larger goals."
- "Improvements in medicine have allowed disabled people to live longer; improvements in equipment such as wheelchairs, hearing aids, or speaking computers allow people with disabilities to be more active; entrepreneurs and other risk-takers with or without disabilities have started travel agencies, sports leagues, and outdoor expeditions providing better and better conditions towards a good life and equality in opportunities."
'as a process of enabling people with disabilities and seniors to function independently and with equity and dignity through the delivery of universal tourism products, services and environments (adapted from Olympic Co-ordination Authority 1999). The definition is inclusive of the mobility, vision, hearing and cognitive dimensions of access' (Darcy 2006:3)*.
