In this episode of Eyeway Conversations, George Abraham and Shilpi Kapoor speak with the founders of the famous GAAD movement. Joe Devon and Jennison Asuncion teamed up in 2012 to initiate what's well known as the Global Accessibility Awareness Day. It was a blogpost written by Joe Devon that started it all. In it, Joe highlighted the need for accessibility know-how to become mainstream among developers. Jennison spotted the post on Twitter and the duo ended up pioneering a global campaign!

Over the last year-and-a-half, through this column, I have highlighted the sheer neglect and absence of empathy towards persons with disabilities. It is apparent in our policies, provisions, their implementation, legal framework, news coverage and above all in our general lingo. We don’t care about the disabled. As harsh as it may sound, it’s true.

I just wanted to share something that I've been working on for quite a while with you all.
It started out as a youtube channel known as "Inclusion The Motto", the idea behind which was to bridge the gap between blind and sighted, to empower and educate sited folk on how us blind do various things, to also hopefully try to reduce some of the not-too-great ideologies they hold about us, all the stereotypes etc. I often think it is also the lack of knowledge and not ignorance that may lead to such ideas or encounters.
Have you ever tried preparing a delicious food item by your self,but your blindness prevented you from doing so and you start losing hope?
A grilled green sandwich or a pizza or stuffed paratha, which one sounds most mouth watering? which one you've tried to cook on your own? Have tried cutting vegetables or fruits? Dared to make paneer or
butter or Ghee at home?
All this may sound complicated and challenging for visually impaired but is equally fun with a bit of hand-holding and practice.

Five years ago when Kanta Bhardwaj, a 33-year-old resident of Hamidpur, was told that her son would never be on par with other children, she said she left the hospital feeling “hopeless.” Her eleven-year-old was diagnosed with cerebral palsy. While Bhardwaj tried to teach him alphabets and numbers in the subsequent years, she said it has been challenging for them.

A majority of blind citizens continue to live on the margins because they remain unaware of the possibilities of inclusion into the mainstream. Most parents admit their visually impaired children into special schools and often the lack of information leaves them grappling with very few choices for higher education.India Post

As many as 210 differently abled persons received smartphones from the Department of Welfare of Differently Abled Persons during a special camp held at the Collectorate here on Thursday.
According to District Differently Abled Welfare Officer (DDAWO) G. Vasanth Kumar, this was the second phase of distribution under the State government scheme as around 150 differently abled beneficiaries received the smartphones during the first phase in 2020. “The distribution got delayed due to the [Assembly] election,” he said.
Vadodara: Prof Prateek Ashwin Shah, a visually-impaired teacher at Sojitra college, so far used to rely on limited literature that was available in Braille language for his PhD studies.
But now, Shah who is pursuing doctoral studies in the Department of Postgraduate Business Studies, has started using a special facility that helps him not only listen to books written in any language but also translate these using the internet — all thanks to Bhaikaka Library of Vallabh Vidyanagar.
