Mathematical Working Environments for the Blind: What is Needed Now?

Blind people encounter great difficulties in dealing with Mathematics. Based on an analysis of these problems, we shall outline possible strategies to overcome them through software support. These strategies are currently being implemented in prototypes developed for a new Mathematical Working Environment dedicated to blind pupils and students.
