The White Cane. Its Effectiveness, Challenges and Suggestions for Effective Use: The Case of Akropon

The article analyses the effectiveness and challenges of the use of the white cane and makes suggestions for its effective use. We explain that the white cane is one of the widely used and famous orientation and mobility (O&M) tools designed for pupils with visual impairment to move independently in their environment.

We make implications and conclude on the findings for policy formulation on the white cane, and make suggestions for future research work.
