Dialogue in the Dark is what is known as a social enterprise of global interest. This initiative is worthwhile effort that targets to bridge the gap between the visually impaired and the rest of society. What initially started off in Germany has now spread its wings to touch the lives of people from all walks of life in 26 different countries around the world. This worthwhile effort is predicted to bring job opportunities within closer reach of the visually impaired through various workshops and educational programs.
It is believed that through such efforts, tolerance levels towards disadvantaged members of the community will improve dramatically within the society. Since the Dialogue in the Dark initiative was first established it has been providing jobs to those with visual incapability and helped in giving thousands of people hope in many forms.
It seems Hong Kong has embraced the notion with arms wide open and is supportive towards its development. Apart from improving the quality of life of the visually impaired in Hong Kong, this social enterprise also focuses on educating the public, offering them a chance to experience the difficulties faced by the visually impaired.
