Description

Thanks to cooperation with tyflocentrum in Olomouc we had a chance to throw this amazing event. The event started with a presentation by

visual impaired person which was open to answer any questions by international students, besides the knowledge and experience presented by the volunteer from the Tyflocentre the participants could try how does it feel to be blind with different educational material and by walking around with a blindfolds and white cane. And since the event is called dinner in the dark, the event finished by a typical czech dish which was ate in complete darkness.
