Invision Chess Academy is an initiative dedicated to empowering visually impaired chess players by connecting them with passionate young mentors from around the world. Our mission is to make chess more accessible and inclusive by providing personalized coaching, resources, and support to visually impaired individuals. Through online sessions, we connect mentors to mentees despite geographical barriers and sustain community engagement. We aim to nurture a love for chess and help players of all abilities unlock their full potential.
A key feature of the Invision Chess Academy is that we assess the strength of both mentors and mentees and accurate match them to ensure a symbiotic relationship wherein both parties can benefit from training sessions and practice games. The takeaway? Don’t worry about your strength! Our academy is for everyone and anyone.
Invision was founded with the belief that everyone deserves access to quality learning experiences, and we are proud to work with talented players, offering them guidance, mentorship, and a sense of belonging. By collaborating with schools, organizations, and individual volunteers, Invision Chess Academy not only supports the blind chess community but also encourages sighted individuals to give back and become advocates for inclusivity in the game of chess.
