WHAT IS TYPHLO & TACTUS?

 
Tactus is now TYPHLO & TACTUS because of the new members (Nederland, Poland),
because we ran workshops in Eastern countries, and because we promote our European Culture Heritage.

But the aim of TYPHLO & TACTUS is still more tactile illustrated books, higher in quality, for the Visually Impaired Children.

After 8 years, the Typhlo & Tactus project present

The Typhlo & Tactus Guide for Children’s Books 
with tactile illustrations

the largest international overview
concerning Tactile Illustrated Books
for Visually Impaired Children

What all the articles from field practitioners have in common is this innovative aspect as well as immense motivation. Here they have shared everything they know with you, generously and unreservedly laid open their practice, with the aim of breaking down the isolation of designers and producers of TiBs throughout the world and particularly those in developing countries, with the staunch believe that children suffering from blindness and impaired visions are entitled to books, so they can find out about culture and discover the immense pleasure of reading, so they can integrate better.
