SUMMARY:World Braille Day
DESCRIPTION:10\,143 views around the world\n\n\n World Braille Day\n\n\n\nWorld Braille Day is observed in order to raise awareness of the importance of braille as a means of communication in the full realization of the human rights for blind and partially sighted people.\n\n\n\nThe first official World Braille Day was celebrated on 4 January 2019.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat is Braille?\n\n\n\nBraille is a tactile representation of alphabetic and numerical symbols using six dots to represent each letter and number\, and even musical\, mathematical and scientific symbols.  \n\n\n\nBraille (named after its inventor in 19th century France\, Louis Braille) is used by blind and partially sighted people to read the same books and periodicals as those printed in a visual font.  \n\n\n\nUse of braille allows the communication of important information to and from individuals who are blind or partially sighted\, ensuring competency\, independence and equality. \n\n\n\nBraille is a means of communication for blind persons\, as reflected in article 2 of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities and is essential in the context of education\, freedom of expression and opinion\, and access to information and written communication\, as well as for the social inclusion of blind persons\, as reflected in articles 21 and 24 of the Convention. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	\n		\n						\n	\n							\n								\n																								\n				\n							\n		\n		\n						\n				\n					blind and visually impaired				\n				Tours for blind and visually impaired travelers						 A collection of travel tips for blind travelers and people with low vision Tips and tours for blind travelers Throughout the Accessible Travel Online website you find quite some information for people with low vision.
