The Benghazi municipality has recently concluded a training course titled "Digital Empowerment, Artificial Intelligence, and Future Careers for People with Disabilities." Organized by the Office of Disability Affairs, the course aimed to equip participants with the latest future-oriented technologies. The program featured several inspiring training models, highlighting the work of engineer Amina Amina, a specialist in information engineering who skillfully completes her work using her feet.

Engineer Amina Amina implemented her project in four integrated phases. The first phase involved research and preparation, developing smart programming commands based on effective coding standards.
