Summary/Abstract: Braille is an internationally recognised writing system that enables the visually impaired to access documents, thus promoting their education, independence and autonomy. The accessibility of Braille is ensured by modern technology and it is still a relatively vibrant communication system today. It serves as a valuable tool for preserving the cultural heritage, identity and linguistic culture of the blind and severely visually impaired. Proficiency in Braille has a positive impact on the educational achievement, employability and self-esteem of its users. Despite the growing popularity of digital technologies, writing remains an important means for the inclusion and participation of severely visually impaired individuals in a wide spectrum of social life.
