Braille

Braille is a writing method that uses raised dots on paper to represent letters, numbers, and words instead of flat ink letters.

It is primarily used by blind or severely visually impaired individuals.

Braille plays a crucial role in the social and educational inclusion of blind people, enabling them to read and write independently. It is also widely used in environments such as schools, libraries, and public spaces to ensure accessibility.

• Assistive Technology : Tools and devices that assist people with disabilities.
• Accessibility in Printed Materials : Adapting books, documents, and signs into accessible formats.
• Screen Readers : Technologies that convert text into speech or digital Braille.

Braille is widely used in materials such as textbooks, restaurant menus, signage, and even technological devices like Braille displays connected to computers. Success stories include inclusion initiatives in schools offering Braille materials and companies adapting their products to serve this audience.

Braille is an indispensable tool for promoting the independence and inclusion of blind or severely visually impaired individuals, ensuring equitable access to information and communication.
