Bringing blind people and people with low vision of different ages and walks of life together in Italy, Germany and Turkey through innovative and interactive workshops. Junior participants will share their technological awareness whilst their senior peers will pass on their daily independent living skills. In addition to running creative workshops, the project ultimately aims to use participant's input to develop and exchange workshop guidelines to encourage others to set up their own intergenerational projects.
