With the goal of building an inclusive society where no one is left behind in the era of “digital technology,” various products have been created to help marginalized groups easily connect with the community. The program involved nearly 20 visually impaired children and youth who were beneficiaries of the technology products provided by Overflow, Rivo, and Xinapse through the Shinhan Square Bridge Vietnam project. At the event, MSD – United Way Vietnam and the participants looked back at the achievements the project had accomplished in supporting the visually impaired community through meaningful and educational games using technology products.
