TRAINING We offer free training for people with visual impairment and other disabilities, who are looking for new personal and professional development opportunities. Our model seeks to strengthen the students’ emotional intelligence by focusing in their Potential and develop their working skills. We promote personal and professional development, thus facilitating their social, cultural, educational and labor inclusion, in order to be productive and independent members of our society. In Sight of Emotion we believe photography is an effective communication tool for blind and visually impaired people, since through it they can be seen and heard. We have taken advantage of this and developed the potential of photography as a first vehicle for self-knowledge, that surpasses a person’s own limits and opens up new possibilities of thought. © Ojos que Sienten A.C., DR, 2016.
