Defectology students and teachers of the Department of Defectology of the Pedagogical Institute of VyatSU supported the International Charity Action "Accessible World"

They organized the 'World by Touch' event. Students and teachers volunteered to embrace the condition of people with health problems and immerse themselves in their world. The volunteers were blindfolded and spent part of the day as blind.

Students in an inclusive group took notes on the material at the lecture. Volunteers from among the "healthy" students accompanied the "disabled" in the classroom, when moving around the academic building, in the library, locker room and buffet. Everyone could take part in the breakfast while blindfolded.

The event was conceived with the aim of showing the participants that health is the most precious value that a person should cherish from childhood. The event made it possible to feel the need for equality of all members of society and human values.
