About

UNICEF initiated and funded the Giving Voice to Every Child project in south-east Europe, supporting young children with communication impairments. The project utilizes Cboard, a free Augmentative and Alternative Communication web application for children and adults with speech and language impairments, and integrates a global symbols database with over 20,000 symbols. It also empowers professionals and parents for effective intervention. The programme, which has been launched in Bulgaria, Croatia, Montenegro, North Macedonia, and Serbia, has directly benefited more than 3,000 children since 2019.
