As Uganda prepares to celebrate International White Cane Day, the government, along with civil society, is spearheading efforts to raise awareness and funds to provide 10,000 white canes for persons with visual impairments. The initiative, themed “A White Cane for Every Blind Person,” aims to enhance independence, mobility, and access to essential services for Uganda’s visually impaired community. A marathon, “Run for the Blind,” will headline the event, calling on the public to “walk the talk” in supporting accessibility and inclusion for all.
