The Gambia Organisation of the Visually Impaired.
The Gambia organization of the Visually Impaired (GOVI) was founded in 1991 by an amalgamation of the Gambia Society for the Blind and the Gambia Association of the blind.

This organization is the only registered body that advocates and provides direct services to visually impaired persons through series of intervention programmes and projects including education for the young and the rehabilitation of both adults and children blind in their own communities. 

GOVI - the Gambia
 
It currently operates a Community Based Rehabilitation and a primary school for children with visual impairments.

The school is based in Kanifing Town, within Gambia’s main city of Banjul, and currently has between 25-30 students attending.

‘Children in Crossfire’ in partnership with the Royal National Institute of the Blind, NI, plan to support GOVI school to open and operate an Information Technology and Teaching Resource Centre.

This centre will provide computers, access to specialised software for the visually impaired, Braille printers, large print teaching aids and books and other educational resources.

Whilst the resource centre will be of direct benefit to the GOVI school, it will also be incorporated into the Gambian Ministry for State Education’s ‘Integrated Education Programme’.  This is a pilot initiative to try and integrate, where possible, children with visual impairments into mainstream schools.

To do so, there is an extensive training programme for teachers through the local university and the GOVI resource centre will become a central part of the wider government training, allowing the teachers to have access to a greater range of teaching resources, and allowing more children to be effectively integrated in their learning.
