On August 29, the exhibition and victory ceremony for outstanding works of the 6th "Sharing the World with You Through Sound: Accompanying Visually-impaired Children to Experience Hangzhou Asian Games" themed speech competition took place at the Hangzhou Party and Mass Service Centre. Fifty award-winning participants performed on the stage.

Guided by the Hangzhou Asian Para Games Organising Committee Executive Office, this event aims to fulfill the dreams of visually-impaired children to "experience" Hangzhou Asian Games and is integrated into the large-scale public initiative "Realising the Asian Games Dreams".

During the event, Lei Ming, a core member of the Hangzhou "Sonar" accessible audiovisual team, and the winner of the National Advanced Individual for Helping Persons with Impairments, provided training on explanations and visual descriptions of accessibility. Qian Jun, chairman of the Association of Persons with Visual Disabilities of Shangcheng District, offered professional training for award-winning participants from the perspective of the visually-impaired community.

In early September, "Sharing the World with You Through Sound" themed restaurants, sign language restaurant, and impaired assistance restaurant will also be unveiled and inaugurated.
