commitment to supporting diverse communities, Airbnb announced a new partnership with the United Spinal Association, an organization dedicated to empowering people with spinal cord injuries and disorders, and all wheelchair users. This comes as searches using our 13 accessibility search filters have grown 40 percent globally, demonstrating increasing demand for accommodations with accessibility features.<sup>1</sup></p> <p>Airbnb and United Spinal will partner through the <a href="https://www.airbnb.com/d/airbnb-entrepreneurship-academy">Airbnb Entrepreneurship Academy</a>, an entrepreneurship development program that introduces people from diverse and historically underrepresented communities to hosting on the Airbnb platform. Building on the success of previous Academy programs, Airbnb and United Spinal will develop a first-of-its-kind Academy tailored to people with mobility needs. Hosted via webinar, the program will include guidance on how to get started on the platform and how to showcase the accessibility features of their homes on their listing pages. </p> <p>This partnership is designed to support members of the mobility community in accessing the economic benefits of hosting. In the US alone, Hosts earned more than $24 billion in supplemental income in 2023, helping them pay bills, save for retirement, and cover housing costs. As with all Academy programs, participants will hear directly from existing Hosts on how to find success on Airbnb. Since its inception in 2017, the Academy has <a href="https://news.airbnb.com/airbnb-entrepreneurship-academy-continues-to-grow-with-30-partners-in-2024/">helped more than 4,500 participants across 12 countries</a> learn how to host. </p> <p>This initiative is also part of our commitment to make travel more accessible. With <a href="https://news.airbnb.com/en-uk/innovating-to-make-travel-more-accessible/">product innovations</a> including Accessibility Review and the Adapted Category, we aim to grow the number of homes with accessibility features, making it easier for people with accessibility needs to find listings that meet their needs.
