According to the WHO, 15 percent of the global population lives with disabilities — a staggering figure. However, a new generation of innovators is striving to break down barriers for these people through technology. At the 2025 World Internet Conference Wuzhen Summit, China Daily reporter Yan An met two young entrepreneurs making significant strides in this area. Giannina Honorio Heredia from Peru highlighted that sign language is not just a means of communication but also a cultural expression, which inspired her to develop a translation app for people with hearing impairment. Jo?o Pedro Novochadlo from Brazil, who has previously helped visually impaired individuals enjoy music festivals through his app, noted that if we turn a blind eye to these issues, we might question who the real "blind" ones are.
