AT includes a wide range of technology products that are used to support persons with disabilities as they work, learn, play and live in their communities. Some examples of AT include: crutches, wheelchairs, ramps, hearing aids, Braille printers, adaptive software, communication devices, just to mention a few. In southern Africa, it is estimated that 85-95% of people with disabilities who need assistive technology (AT) do not have access to it. Without information and awareness, these needs will continue to go unmet. It is in this context that the the Southern Africa Assistive Technology Expo (SAATE) is being organized.

The SAATE becomes an important component of the AT-Info-Map project seeking to bring together practical problem solvers, AT suppliers and service providers from Southern Africa and beyond to facilitate improvements in the AT sector broadly through raising awareness about the need for better AT solutions and/or products particularly in Southern Africa.

Registration to exhibit AT products in Namibia for both free and premium exhibitors is underway.

Viewers can register online here in order to earn a discsounted R30 gate/entrence fee on the day of the Expo! us, if you do not resgister in advance online, you will pay R50 normal fee at the door.
