How can we make digital education inclusive for blind and visually impaired people? What benefits can new technologies such as 3D printing bring specifically for people with visual impairments? What role do educational institutions play here? To present some ideas on these questions, we invite you to our event on 3D printing technology: How do people with visual impairments benefit?
The event is part of the T4VIS-In3D project and is supported by the Erasmus+ programme of the European Union.
