Lloyd Waller takes a closer look at how ICT can enhance political participation and thereby be used as a tool for the development of a more inclusive society. Using the experiences of the visually impaired in two Caribbean countries, Jamaica and Barbados, Waller presents the challenges faced by such persons in actively and effectively participating in the political process and suggests possible solutions to these challenges. With a focus on youth, Envisioning Democracy not only outlines how all citizens can use ICT to engage in governance activities but, more importantly, how disabled citizens can improve their knowledge and communicate with others.
