The goal of this Global Leadership Camp for Visually Impaired people, supported by Skylight, is to improve and foster change in the social environment surrounding visually impaired people in each country by identifying and developing future leaders among the visually impaired population.

The 2nd Global Leadership Camp for Visually Impaired people, supported by Skylight, will be delivered thanks to support from our main sponsor Skylight Consulting and in partnership with ONCE Social Group. It will take place in Madrid from November 17th to 22nd.
