Hi, Eyeway, a project of Score Foundation, Delhi, is a knowledge resource about living a fulfilling life with blindness/low-vision. One of our five ways to disseminate this knowledge is through workshops & seminars.
Amravati seminar & its objective A one day interactive meeting is organised in Amravati on 17 May 2011 towards raising awareness of visually impaired people, NGOs and special educators. The seminar aims to apprise people about useful assistive technologies, education in mainstream schools, the different fields of education & career options, improving their social inclusion, skill development and government and legal provisions. Leading visually impaired people & others from Vidarbha region have extended their voluntary support to us, without which it would not have been possible to organise the seminar. Who can participate Visually impaired people who are determined about moving ahead in life, special educators who believe in the potential of blind people, NGOs working towards inclusion, and parents who want to see their child becoming a self-reliant and a contributing person are encouraged to contact and register with us.
