To further augment the chances of literacy among the blind & purblind, shan't we also work towards encouraging the making & availability of resources in the languages' versions of braille? After all, literacy isn't necessarily a negative thing to encourage & can help open many ways for the better. One little known thing about Native Australians is that some of the groups used message sticks quite like scrolls or a kind of writing (similar to the wampum belts among the Haudenosaunee, the Khipu among the Inca & the Suzhou numerals in China, to name several).
