VIPTechJob: Time 2 Act

Support the inclusion of visually impaired people through employment

Project Team

Summary

The project stems from an already executed project (VIP-Tech-Job), completed in January 2020, during which an accessible Web App and an Online Training Platform were designed to enable young VIPs to search and successfully apply for a job in an accessible, efficient and autonomous way. The developed products were recognized as having great potential but also benefiting from further systematic dissemination leading to greater exploitation of the results, so the consortium decided to design a new project proposal. Along with a new member from Greece, we conducted a thorough context analysis to integrate new findings and existing data, in order to have a complete overview of the framework the project is going to operate in.
