On the first ever World Day for Assistive Technology, we’re calling on governments to prioritize the needs of people who would benefit from assistive technology. Assistive technology (AT) refers to assistive products, and their related systems and services. Assistive products can facilitate people’s everyday actions such as their ability to move, communicate, and see better than before. Today, June 4, the International Day of Assistive Technology is celebrated for the first time. Watch this video to share the meaning and relevance of Assistive Technology (Assistive Technology) #WorldATDay #UnlockTheEveryday Assistive Technology makes it possible for all people who need it to evolve in their lives according to their dreams, but it also saves the lives of many of them. I want to bring here the technology for feeding people who have serious swallowing problems or other associated problems, which make it impossible for us to remain well nourished and in good health without their contribution. That is why I participate in the work of SPOON Foundation, which supports families to prevent malnutrition in their children with disabilities, or caregivers of children who are in foster care. I invite you to watch this video! #UnlockTheEveryday #WorldATDay #AssistiveTechnology
