Hi,
This makes sense certainly. For me the main thing is to establish events with fellow-blind citizens who share same challenges, feel a sense of belonging Etc. In the sighted world when we are only surrounded by them, sometimes they cannot fully appreciate our challenges and how they affect us emotionally. They think they understand but they really cannot. So these events like "Cooking without looking", while it offers a very valuable skill set for those of us who need it (and I believe all blind people should empower themselves this way), it also offers us opportunity to congrigate together and feel a sense of community.

Just my thoughts.

Kind regards,

Yamuna Jivana Dasa

As of now the trainer feels that touch and feel is important and people who will come to the workshop will get to try out several things.
The same cannot be done in recorded video.

We will explore how we can provide this experience to more participants. May be a different format soon....

Dear NAB Delhi team
I would have also loved to be a part of the workshop, but am located in Mumbai.
Hoping that we are able to have the recording.
Was also wondering if there is any scope to have an online session after this.

Thank you

regards

Penny
