Vážení přátelé, Tímto sdělením se obrací SONS na všechny slabozraké abonenty této konference, kteří umějí trochu anglicky nebo znají někoho, kdo by jim s angličtinou pomohl. Oč tedy jde: Evropská unie nevidomých, jejímž je SONS řádným členem, a univerzita v italském Salernu realizují projekt PRO4VIP, který mapuje potřeby slabozrakých občanů Evropské unie. Univerzita v Salernu vypracovala dotazník, týkající se pomůcek a služeb pro slabozraké. Účast slabozrakých Evropanů ze všech členských zemí EU na dotazníkové akci je s vděčností vítána. Každý z Vás, kdo má zájem a chuť, nechť se na dotazník podívá (viz odkaz níže) a pokud se mu otázky nebudou zdát příliš vtíravé, nechť dotazník vyplní. Děkuji jménem realizátorů projektu. R. Volejník (níže následuje dopis projektového manažera Evropské unie nevidomých členským organizacím, ve kterém najdete podrobnější informace o projektu i dotazníku.) Dear members, EBU is involved in the EU-funded PRO4VIP project. The objective of the project is to improve the quality of life of functional low-vision persons through demand-driven public procurement of innovative assistive technologies or services. The University of Salerno, Italy, is carrying out a survey to collect the following information on partially sighted (PS) persons: - their needs in their daily life, - the kind of aids and precautions they use daily in order to improve their quality of life, - their desired experience, - the desired assistive solutions to improve their quality of life. A questionnaire in English is available on the website of the University of Salerno, responsible for collecting the data, at http://www.pro4vip.eu/quest/ A high response rate is crucial and we therefore ask your active participation in this exercise. Please circulate it amongst your regional/local branches and individual members. A Word version is also attached and can be returned to Prof. Giuliana Vitiello, University of Salerno, at gvitiello@unisa.it, although we strongly encourage you to fill in the online form whenever possible so as to make response processing much easier. This questionnaire is a unique opportunity to massively collect the information aforementioned with no cost for EBU. Statistical results derived from responses will: - help the PRO4VIP consortium build a technological platform, where present and future needs may be adequately classified and the instrument of Public Procurement profitably exploited to better support the provision of innovative low-vision technology and services. - help EBU develop future meaningful activities and projects on low vision. This quantitative survey will be complemented with national focus group discussions involving partially sighted panelists so as to provide the project with qualitative input. Survey results will be circulated in Mid-2016. In case you need help or further information to fill in the questionnaire, you may contact Giuliana Vitiello at gvitiello@unisa.it.
