Minister joins White Cane Day parade at Expo – The National

Expo 2020 Dubai championed inclusivity on Friday by hosting a parade dedicated to the blind and visually impaired.

At 5pm, when the weather started to cool, crowds gathered at the Sustainability Gate to join in on a walk to celebrate White Cane Day.

Observed on October 15 around the world, the event recognises the achievements of people who are blind or visually-impaired, as well as their tool of independence, the white cane.
