DONATE TO EIFL
The ‘Miracle of Marrakesh’ - the Marrakesh Treaty for people who are blind, visually impaired or otherwise print disabled - celebrates its 10th anniversary this month, and we take pleasure in sharing the Treaty’s remarkable progress. In our 2022 Annual Report, we highlight achievements of all our programmes. Public library ICT training supported by EIFL is empowering entrepreneurs and energizing micro-enterprises in Uganda. We’ve started a new project aiming to build open science capacity at 11 institutions in Malawi. And we share news about three renewed agreements with publishers. Read about our events, past and present - and enjoy our mid-year issue!
