Improving the accessibility of maths and statistics for visually impaired people

Gaps in accessibility for visually impaired students can deter them from pursuing mathematical sciences with administration, culture and curricula among the highest-rated obstacles for visually impaired students studying mathematics.  This project brings together the mathematical community to understand the limitations and improve accessibility for visually impaired people.
