Short description of the event: 
Our first event of the EA Week is called "Dialogue in the Dark". To feel empathy with visually impaired people and to create awareness about them, we kept our eyes tied during the activity. Our purpose was to understand the difficulties with which blind people and visually impaired people have to deal. We tried to talk to each other while our eyes were tied. Even just to talk was really difficult because you can not see other people's gestures and attitudes and sometimes you can not understand where sound comes from. Some of our members also tried to eat or to drink some tea during the activity. We believe that it was a great way of creating awareness about visually impaired people.
