Jifunze Uelewe will also provide access to learning resources for vision-impaired children through electronic Braille readers, e-books and sign-language overlays,\u201d it indicated.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking at the launch, USAID Mission Director Kate Somvongsiri said, \u201cI am encouraged by the significant progress Tanzania has made in recent years to ensure that every child has access to a fee-free education.<\/p>\n<p>However, in order to increase the number of children to receive a better education, it is important that our partnership empowers communities.
