The aim of the workshop series was therefore to train the use and production of the tools in order to foster the provision of assistive devices for people with disabilities in Kenya. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.technikum-wien.at\/personal\/sarah-langer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Sarah Langer<\/a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.technikum-wien.at\/personal\/martin-deinhofer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Martin Deinhofer<\/a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.technikum-wien.at\/personal\/alija-sabic\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Alija Sabic<\/a> from UAS Technikum Wien were in Kenya as part of the Inclusion International project (City of Vienna, MA23, 33-02).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The workshop program was as follows:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Day 1: Technologies for visually impaired and blind people<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Day 2: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/posts\/senseshub_cognitive-communication-impairments-activity-7188828586282270720-5mDh?utm_source=share&amp;utm_medium=member_desktop\">AAC with AsTeRICS Grid and translation into Swahili<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Day 3: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/posts\/senseshub_accessible-vision-accessible-activity-7189170986972303360-yuUZ?utm_source=share&amp;utm_medium=member_desktop\">Soldering and configuring the FABI button interface<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Day 4: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/posts\/senseshub_hackathon-websiteaccessibility-disabilities-activity-7189558927288651776-x9-w?utm_source=share&amp;utm_medium=member_desktop\">Hackathon<\/a> with tasks for 3 personas: visually impaired, blind and motor impaired (see <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/posts\/senseshub_assistivetechnology-hackathon-solutions-activity-7190996123908501504-KcCO?utm_source=share&amp;utm_medium=member_desktop\">hackathon winner post<\/a>)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Day 5: Panel discussion with participants from various interest groups, including the Ministry of Education and the National Council of Disabilities.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-ovl-heading\" data-accent=\"true\" data-tag=\"h2\" data-style-level=\"h4\">Exchange and cooperation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The workshop also provided a platform for exchange between developers and users. More than 50 developers and 30 people with disabilities took part and worked together to create and improve the technologies. This collaboration not only promotes understanding of the needs of users, but also strengthens the community of assistive technology developers in Kenya.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The workshop concluded with a panel discussion with representatives from various stakeholders. Participants included the Ministry of Education and the National Council of Disabilities. The discussion underlined the importance of the technologies developed and the need for further research and development work in this area. UAS Technikum Wien and Senses Hub drew a positive balance of the workshop and expressed their interest in future cooperation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-ovl-heading\" data-accent=\"true\" data-tag=\"h2\" data-style-level=\"h4\">Visit to the Maasai village and academic cooperation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to the workshop, participants also visited a Maasai village, where they presented UAS TW pens and writing pads to the Maasai schoolchildren. This visit provided a valuable opportunity to provide direct support and gain cultural experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the last day of the visit, representatives from UAS Technikum Wien met with Emanuel Kweyu, Deputy Director and Head of eHealth Research at Strathmore University. During this meeting, opportunities for academic exchange and research cooperation in the fields of assistive technologies, IoT, eHealth, data science, cyber security and machine learning were discussed. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ilabafrica.ac.ke\/\">Strathmore University<\/a> showed great interest in collaboration, which opens up promising prospects for future projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p
