"International Camp on Communication and Computers (ICC'13): Overcome borders,
meet a larger world" is an event designated for young people (aged from 14 to 17) with visual impairments or multiple disabilities including visual impairment who are interested in improving their communication and social skills. The aim of the project is to provide an opportunity to enhance social skills to young people who, due to their disability, have less possibilities of social contact than their peers. The fact that English will be the official language together with the international and multilingual environment of the camp will allow the participants to improve their foreign language skills and will help develop their sensitivity to cultural differences.
ICC'13 will take place from 15 to 22 July in a small Czech town called Telč, included in the UNESCO World Cultural Heritage List.
