Egypt has a population of 92 million, with between 0.3% to 0.4% of them being visually impaired (VI). About 70% to 90% of the VI are illiterate. Inclusion is a new strategy of the Ministry of Education that started 3 years ago, but which has still not been implemented in the correct manner. EPpersons with visual impairment has an early detection program in which public schools in poor areas are screened. The model is based on the cooperation of three main partners, these being the parents, the association and the school, with each partner having a specific role. The intention is to force the government through parent pressure and set a model for them.
