On this #InternationalSignLanguageDay we reiterate that not all disabilities are visible. Therefore, there is an urgent need to create an inclusive environment where young persons with disability can thrive including #deafcommunity.
#DeafAwarenessWeek
Through innovation, entrepreneurship & Leadership Development, we support young people with hard of hearing impairments to startup businesses, build their capacities in mapping and analyzing disability policy commitments to increase their advocacy capacities.
