Goal of the Activity

As part of the Introduction Week, we want to show the international students the Tactual Museum, which is an alternative museum. The "Tactual Museum" is part of a bigger association called "Faros" which is an association for people with visual impairment. There, people can get familiarized with Braille writing and reading, as well as other activities that help people with visual disabilities in their everyday life! People can experience the exhibits through the other senses compared to other museums that people are not allowed to touch exhibits. This means that people can also experience things without the sense of vision and through this event, we can raise awareness about visual impairment! 

Description

Hello, Erasmus People

You've just arrived in Athens, and you wanna get the best of it? Well, we got you!!

We invite you to a special kind of museum called "Tactual Museum." Have you ever wondered how a person with visual disability experiences everyday life?

Well, in this museum you'll explore the exhibits only by touching, you'll have the chance to participate in other activities and familiarize yourself with the reality of these people.
