Creating solutions for people with disabilities

Dear Difteur-ses

My Human Kit lives thanks to its volunteers, project leaders, partner healthcare professionals... who together manufacture solutions improving the daily lives of people with disabilities.

Today discover Rozenn, occupational therapist at the Angèle Vannier Center in Rennes and MHK member!

She works with a public of blind or visually impaired people. The Humanlab is for her a resource place that enables her to enrich the support she offers. She has already contributed to a dozen projects, such as a check-filling guide, a floor target game adapted for people with visual impairments, or touch dice for a toy library.

A big THANK YOU for your support!

Dear Difteur-ses,

To achieve this, we organize workshops bringing together middle school students and young people with disabilities to invent solutions together, while promoting digital learning.

For example, in April, we're running a 15-day residency at a middle school in our area. The aim is to get two classes of 5th graders to make four sensory boxes. These kits will be made available to students with special needs in class.

Each kit includes:

Fidgets: small, discreet objects to manipulate, offering an outlet for tension and the need for movement.

An audio player: enabling young non-readers or those with reading difficulties to listen to certain books independently.

Tetra'aide: visual indicators enabling students to signal to the teacher any difficulties encountered during an exercise in class.

The entire pedagogical sequence and achievements are documented to benefit as many people as possible and to be reproduced elsewhere in France and around the world.

If you have a little time, we invite you to consult this documentation here.

A big THANK YOU for your support!
