Live Event 61 - Celebrating World Braille Day
Our next Live Event takes place on Tuesday 4th January at 2:30pm.
For almost 200 years, Braille has transformed the lives of many people with
sight loss. It has promoted equal opportunities and opened doors to
literacy, education, and employment. In recognition of World Braille Day
taking place on 4th January, our first Live Event of 2022 will be dedicated
entirely to the tactile writing system of Braille.
What exactly is Braille? How is it used, why is it so important, and
where can it be learned? To help answer these questions and more we will be
joined by several experienced Braille readers that use Braille in all walks
of life - at home, in school, college, and in the workplace. We'll also be
finding out about the NCBI Labs Electronic Braille Group, how you can get
involved in this group, and how to register your interest in one of their
courses to start learning Braille.
