    Braille Without Borders

    Braille Without Borders (BWB) is an international organisation for the blind in developing countries. It was founded in Lhasa, Tibet by Sabriye Tenberken and Paul Kronenberg in 1998.

    Overview

    BWB's mission is to give hope and practical skills to the blind and in particular to teach Braille to the blind in developing countries; if no Braille script exists for a particular language in a developing country, BWB must first develop it.

    Formerly known as the Project for the Blind, Tibet in September 2002 the project adopted the name Braille Without Borders.
