Norwegian term or phrase: kvalitetsheving
Figur 4 viser at flertallet av tiltakene i alle byer i større grad blir oppfattet å være en generell kvalitetsheving enn å være spesielt rettet mot folk med funksjonshemminger. Dette bildet er klart sterkest i Oslo der nesten to av tre svarer at det oppleves som en kvalitetsheving, mens bare én av ti mener tiltakene er rettet mot funksjonshemmede
