Sign Language Day

Awareness day organized by the German Association of the Deaf to recognize sign language.

Idea to get started

Offer a 'sign language basics' workshop; review accessibility for deaf/hard-of-hearing colleagues (video calls with captions).

Did you know?

There are more than 300 sign languages worldwide. German Sign Language has been recognized as a language in its own right since 2002 under Germany's Disability Equality Act (German law).
