Day 22: 31 Days of Braille

NBP “Touch of Genius” Competition

January is Braille Awareness Month in honor of Louis Braille’s birthday on January 4, 1809.

The National Braille Pres (NBP) Touch of Genius Prize has been promoting Braille innovation since 2007. Each year $10,000 is awarded for a braille or tactile-related innovation. The competition is not limited to just the U.S. but is international in scope.

RNIB Connect Radio spoke to NBP President Brian MacDonald about the competition and the NBP. Get those ideas  over to NBP!
