Let’s join hands with the differently abled. Batticaloa Local Guides have planned a meet with the intention of supporting the differently-abled people with disability access in the Eastern Province of Sri Lanka. In the Eastern province of Sri Lanka, many disabled people are not aware of this disability information on Google map. This knowledge sharing session will help the disabled people to search the relevant information before they visit and also through their well-wishers. For instance, finding wheelchair access from a shop, a wide entrance way to carry big luggage, restrooms without elevators, places that have to be accessed only by stairs. Sharing the knowledge of us Local Guides with these type of constituents of the society is the best way to collate the knowledge and end up with positive outputs. By this, the participants can support differently able people from the community who doesn’t have enough knowledge on using Google maps. We will be making them aware on how to edit places, adding new places, answering disability-related questions and etc. After the session, we will be going on a Geowalk in Batticaloa City.
