ALT SOH Press Statement on World Day for Assistive Technology - 4 June 2025 Signs of Hope Trust joins the world in commemorating the second World Day for Assistive Technology — a day dedicated to raising awareness about assistive technology (AT) and the urgent need to improve access, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. Assistive technology refers to products such as wheelchairs, eyeglasses, hearing aids, prosthetics, digital tools, and their supporting systems and services. These technologies empower individuals to see, hear, move, and communicate more effectively, enabling them to live healthier, more independent lives — studying, working, and enjoying everyday moments with dignity and autonomy. Today is a special day to reflect on the progress made regarding Assistive Technology in Zimbabwe, including: the removal of tax on assistive devices, the launch of the National Assistive Technology Strategy (2024–2025), and the development of the Assistive Products Priority List
