What can blind students in Kenya benefit from the technology to be adopted?

Until recently, blind and visually impaired students in Kenya were still using Braille books for their studies. But Kenyan schools for the blind are now beginning to adopt technology that provides material in an audible form—and in the process expands their opportunities. Assistive technology equips the learners with many skills that really make them independent in life. Students can read materials like books, magazines, newspapers by themselves. And apart from that—assistive technology equips them with employable skills.

Travelers passing from Denmark into Sweden will have to show photo identification starting Monday. The move by Sweden is an attempt to stop the flow of undocumented migrants into the country known for its generous welfare system. The new measure means Sweden is closing its open-door migrant policy after receiving 160,000 migrants last year. Neighboring Denmark only took in 18,000. Travelers have been warned to expect long lines on the Danish side of a major entry point for migrants seeking a new life in Sweden.
