DESCRIPTION:   In Cameroon there are 500\,000 visually impaired people.  M
 ost of them\, without specialised education or training\, are illiterate. 
  They depend on their family\, living isolated from society and unfortunat
 ely often condemned to mendacity.\n   In 1988\, worried by the situation\,
  two young blind Cameroonian (Coco Bertin Mowa and Martin Luther Amahata A
 dibita) created the Club of Young Rehabilitated Blind Persons of Cameroon 
 (CJARC are its initials in French).  It is an apolitical association\, wit
 h a social\, humanitarian and cultural vision.  The main goal of CJARC is 
 to provide information\, education\, training and integration to the socie
 ty for the visually impaired people of Cameroon.\n   In this talk I would 
 discuss about the experiences of my partner\, Amandine Boyeau\, and myself
  as volunteers at CJARC during the months of January-May and April-May 201
 2 respectively.
