Technology – Key to achieve Education for All
Strategy for using technology to enable the education of children with a visual impairment alongside their sighted peers – at the suggestion of Gordon Brown, the former UK Prime Minister, who is now the UN Secretary-General's Special Envoy for Global Education
Pilot programmes underway

Technology in EFA-VI – The Strategy
The emerging strategy has three drivers - "kit", "content" and "confidence". "Kit" refers to the devices we need for accessing information using ICT. "Content" refers to the materials we need to access in an accessible form. “Confidence" refers to the skills needed to use this kit

The Reality
Life has become more competitive as a result of technology Industries have acknowledged the impact of technologyBut special education is yet to assimilate the technological innovations in the learning process
