Within these initiatives, he said, are also inserted activities for professional development and writing in Braille, necessary for the incorporation into the social and cultural life of the Caribbean island of the blind and visually impaired linked to psychology, law, physiotherapy , among other professions.

In the province of Holguin, a multi-service center is being built, which will include a computer room, a meeting room, a recreation area, a library, a mini-apartment and a parking lot.
