Global Braille Survey

As part of the Global Braille Literacy Campaign – More Braille: More Empowerment – a survey has been created to provide an important opportunity for people around the world to share their experiences and perspectives on braille literacy.

Led by the International Council for Education of People with Visual Impairment (ICEVI), the World Blind Union (WBU), and collaborating organisations and individuals, this global research initiative aims to strengthen our understanding of how braille is learned, taught, accessed and used – and of the factors that enable or create barriers to braille literacy.

NOTE: NextSense is proud to support this global initiative by using the UEBOnline platform to make our user base aware of the survey. However, NextSense are not part of the committee responsible for generating the survey or analysing results. If you have questions on the survey then please contact ICEVI at the email address below on this page.
