On 27 November 2024, our students visited The Blind Bake Garden Café in Hauz Khas as part of their We Care initiative and the Eyecan Project. Supported by the National Association for the Blind (NAB), this remarkable café provides culinary training and practical life skills to visually impaired individuals, fostering their independence and empowerment.
Students observed the café’s seamless operations and learned about its innovative training model, which integrates technical tools like screen readers and braille devices, as well as digital literacy. They also explored Ujjwala, a handicrafts shop run by visually impaired artisans, and participated in discussions on empowering individuals through skills in healthcare and creative arts.
Contributing to this mission, the students presented a website they have developed to offer calming techniques for visually impaired individuals. This visit inspired students to advocate for inclusion, accessibility, and mental well-being with renewed determination.
