Our belief

We believe in the unlimited potential of the human-being. We also believe in the power of information, which not only informs, but also inspires, enriches, empowers and encourages people to pursue their passions and make a contribution.

It is said that “A Disability is God given, but a handicap is man made.” A vision impaired person tends to get marginalised and excluded from various facets of life due to a lack of understanding, sensitivity and accessible designs. With the passage of time the constant exclusion leads to the disability transforming itself into a handicap.

Hence our second thrust area is inclusion or Universal Design. We believe that every one born into this world is an integral part of it. The society has to recognise, appreciate and accommodate the diversity that exists within it. All plans, policies and programmes have to take into account the needs of every member, lest no one gets left out.
