About the Programme

Many of us take our day-to-day for granted, and we sometimes forget that some of us need extra help to do everyday things, such as seeing, hearing, learning, and moving. Join us for an eye-opening exploration of assistive technologies (AT) and their profound impact on our community as we unravel the role that these innovations have in empowering persons with disabilities to make their daily activities smoother.

Register now to discover the incredible potential of AT.
