What is Typhlo and Tactus ?
Typhlo and Tactus aims to encourage excellence and the sharing of ideas,
resources and expertise in the creation of tactile books for visually-impaired
children. It is also a way of providing much-needed, high quality tactile books
for distribution around the EU. Each year the Typhlo and Tactus organisation
holds a European tactile book competition for member countries. The lucky winners
not only receive 600 euros and a trophy but also see several hundred copies of
their books produced and distributed (at an affordable price made possible by
an EU subsidy) in English, French, Finnish, German, Dutch, Italian and Polish
editions.
