The Hanoi College of Pedagogy today opened a class for people with hearing impairment.

This is the second class for people with hearing disability operated under the auspices of Nippon Foundation (Japan) since 1999, according to Ohno, Nippon Foundation’s Executive Director in a press brief on October 28^th in Hanoi.

The previous class was opened in Dong Nai Province and since then 15 students with hearing impairment have graduated from university.

Director Ohno said that such a project had offered people with hearing impairment the access to secondary and tertiary education.

Along with these meaningful classes, Nippon Foundation has carried out other charitable activities in Vietnam such as building an Independent Living Center for disabled people and offering artificial limbs for 45,000 veterans and people with mobile disability.
