He is blind, wants to be a lawyer and demands a kinder environment

Gustavito breathes and perceives the world differently. He lives it, feels it and faces it every day. The world itself can be very different for everyone. Depending on who looks at it, depending on who lives it, according to their own reality … He is blind and it is his turn to warn and feel that “it could be better.” More accessible, but real. More chord, more friendly for all people. You need to say it.

He studies, works and receives a pension that reaches “little and nothing”. But it does not stay with that. Always looking for change, to do, to propose. Find the good side of everything.

–

And it started with something. On one very important part, which saves many people a lot of way: it transcribes menus, letters and posters with products and prices for shops in Braille, in Roca. But since he also knows that not everyone knows about this system, he began to shape gastronomic proposals (mostly, still) through audios to send and reproduce to customers.

Only with his effort and lung, with no more hands than his to help, he put his typewriter to work and delivered the finished letters to various Roquean confectioneries, bars and restaurants.

Gustavito Loncomán lives in Roca, studies Law at the Faculty of Law and Social Sciences -Fadecs de la Unco- and works.

As he can and when he can, he searches for them too. You need it.

“The pension I receive sometimes is not enough for me, so I work from this. I transcribe in braille, because I want accessibility to be real… it’s not lucrative, “he explained,” but I need to do things to live. “

Urban debt

Locomán takes to the streets every day, carries out his activities and therefore warns that “accessibility is lacking.”

So he wonders why in many cities there are still no audible traffic lights, on the main arteries, for people who are blind or have impaired vision.

Why on the sidewalks, mainly in the downtown area, there are posters anywhere, chairs and tables that occupy a large part of the space, bicycle racks located ‘a la buena de Dios’ and others …

“Unfortunately cities, like Roca for example, are not accessible. Sometimes I get to a traffic light and I have to wait for someone to tell me … eye that it is green, or ‘you can cross’ “.

He assured that there are many people who have total visual impairment or partial visual impairment and “we feel excluded.”

“Yes there are ramps for the disabled, some regulations have been made, but for the blind there is a long way to go. We do not have audible traffic lights and for us going out is a danger. Going to the movies … without an audio description system (only some have it) is like nothing, we don’t understand. Going out for a walk and being afraid of falling all the time because they put anything on the sidewalk, even tables and chairs… Broken sidewalks, wells… ”.

“We have the right to move freely… but it is difficult. Bicycles and motorcycles are also on the sidewalk… but there shouldn’t be so many rules, more common sense ”, he asked.

A few years ago, since 2018, it began as its own initiative by making the menus in Braille. “I propose it, sometimes they ask me, and it is an economic support for me, but always looking for inclusion. Not only in the braille system we also do it in mp3 audio because there are people who do not know the braille system ”.

And the idea is that this works for everyone, as it should be.
