About this event
The purpose of this week is to increase public awareness about the issues affecting deaf people and deaf culture as a whole. Events and activities throughout Deaf Awareness Week encourage individuals to unite as a community for both educational and celebratory purposes.
It’s an important week for the recognition of deaf people, communities, and organisations. The week reminds the public that deaf people have their own communities, cultures, languages, and sign languages, which unite them. Deaf Awareness Week also aims to bring attention to the isolation that deaf people can occasionally experience, and heightens the importance of inclusion in the deaf community.
