Al-Tadamun support for visually impaired students
The world celebrates International White Cane Day on October 15, which aims to highlight the rights of people with visual impairments, raise awareness, and emphasize the importance of facilitating mobility and social inclusion. The Egyptian Ministry of Social Solidarity offers comprehensive support to university students with visual disabilities, including annual grants that have benefited 918 students across 24 universities at a cost of 3.5 million Egyptian pounds. In addition, they cover tuition fees, distribute more than 300 white canes and fully equipped laptops to promote students' independence. Access to transportation has also been improved by making 50 metro stations and 20 train stations accessible. Furthermore, social support programs such as "Karama" serve approximately 1.3 million people with disabilities, with the goal of enhancing their integration into education, employment, and society.
