The Reality for Visually Impaired Students in Cameroon
OVER 85%
of visually impaired students in Cameroon lack access to the digital tools and accessible materials necessary for their education.
This creates a significant barrier to their academic and professional success, preventing them from reaching their full potential.
How We Bridge the Gap
We are working to change the reality for visually impaired students in Cameroon by providing comprehensive support and resources.
Accessible Educational Materials
We convert textbooks into Braille and audio, giving students the freedom to learn and study on their own terms.
Digital Skills Training
Our hands-on workshops empower students with the essential assistive technology skills they need to succeed in a digital world.
Advocacy and Awareness

A Message from Our Founder
Bridging the Educational Gap for Visually Impaired Students
I’m Bertrand Bafon. Inspired by Barbara Johnson’s mentorship, I founded this center to give visually impaired students the learning tools I wish I had in school — Braille books, audio lessons, and digital skills training. Together, we can make education accessible for every child.
