| Summary: | <p dir="ltr">In a pioneering step that reinforces the principles of inclusion and excellence, the Higher Institute of Music in Sousse launched, in September 2023, the first national center for teaching music in Braille in Tunisia and the Arab world, specifically dedicated to supporting visually impaired students. The center includes a dedicated room for printing musical scores in Braille, tactile reading boards, a comprehensive library, and scanning technologies that facilitate access to and reading of documents. This project is based on active collaboration between faculty members, staff, artists, and civil society, aiming to empower students through the creation of musical ensembles and employment opportunities. It forms part of a broader vision to build a community that embraces creativity and upholds the values of inclusion without exception.</p><h2>Other Information</h2><p dir="ltr">Presentation was given at: Libraries Thriving Together in an Open Ecosystem <a href="https://www.qnl.qa/en/libraries-lead-forum-2025" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.qnl.qa/en/libraries-lead-forum-2025</a><br>License: <a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/deed.en" target="_blank">https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/</a><br>Conference information: Libraries Lead Forum 2025 <a href="https://www.qnl.qa/en/libraries-lead-forum-2025/agenda" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.qnl.qa/en/libraries-lead-forum-2025/agenda</a></p><table><tr></tr></table><p dir="ltr"><br></p> |
