Ciudad Juarez.- Through the Blind Tour program of the Museum of the Border Revolution (Muref) they seek the inclusion of people with visual problems. The scheme of this program is developed through Braille training and with recreational activities for the teaching of reading and writing, also open to normally sighted people and school groups, said Dr. Roberto Prieto. Currently the museum has adaptations such as maps in relief and in Braille, and books printed in ink, this with the purpose of making the museum accessible to people with visual disabilities and also helps to promote and set an example of inclusion in public cultural spaces, mentioned the research professor at the Autonomous University of Ciudad Juárez (UACJ). In addition, the museum has two haptic maps (tactile plans of the space) installed inside the museum. The maps allow users to recognize the space through touch, said the interviewee. The Muref has 50 inclusive books printed in ink and Braille simultaneously, which allows their reading and access by people with and without visual disabilities. It also has 95 QR codes with audio guides and audio descriptions of the room. Braille training is offered to school groups, in its two variants, for children or teachers, he said. The workshop focused on groups of teachers contains knowledge of the Braille System applied to the development of letter and number material, and training for interaction with people with visual disabilities. The activities are free and include materials for the workshop, and can be implemented in educational institutions, or they can go to Muref, which is located on Vicente Guerrero Avenue and 16 de Septiembre, in the Centro area. The requirement for schools is to have a group of between 25 and 40 participants for the workshop.
