ARC
Accessible Resource Centre for Inclusive Education of Children with Visual Impairments
The Centre for Accessibility in the Global South (CAGS), IIIT Bangalore in partnership with Vision Empower and Bosch Global Software Technologies (BGSW) have established an Accessible Resource Centre (ARC) at IIIT Bangalore campus. ARC is envisioned to be an accessible, inclusive centre to enrich the portfolio of Vision Empower interventions.
As a shared resource centre, the ARC is the next progressive step in engagements with beneficiaries and will showcase experiential learning techniques using accessible educational aids, assistive technology solutions, digital literacy lab and accessible science lab to promote inclusive STEM education for children with Visual Impairments. It will be a hub to promote research and innovation with participation from actors in academia, government departments and our partner organizations.
