@KTNNewsKE @KBCChannel1 @ntvkenya @citizentvkenya @K24Tv @CA_Kenya @KenyasOmbudsman accessible communication and information for the #DeafKenyans using #KenyanSignLanguage

[Kam Coda Deo @CodaKam]

No Deaf kid should be denied access to sign-language ASAP, based on how “difficult it is for their parents to learn” that lang. The real ? is whether Government is willing to plan intervention programs & spend £$€ #LanguageDeprivation #DeafChildren #SignLanguageForAll

Sign-language is fantastic & it should be taught to every Deaf kid as their first language. That’s it. That’s the tweet. #SignLanguage #SignLanguageForAll #BritishSignLanguage #Bilingualism #DeafChildren #DeafEducation #DeafRights #LanguageDeprivation

We will keep reminding you that #KenyanSignLanguage is the language of the #DeafKenyans there is need to train #DeafTeachers to build a strong foundation for #deafchildren so that they have strong Numeracy and Literacy skills before they start primary school.

[Jack Owiti - the Dancing Interpreter @Owitie]

@MOESTKe why are you leaving out #DeafKenyans by NOT including #KenyanSignLanguage as one of the languages at KCSE? This is discrimination and #audism first you bar all #DeafKenyans from being taught kiswahili then use it as a requirement for teacher training.

@nhifkenya @PaulKart8 Some of us are hospitalized, we are hoping the online avenues will be open to help with the data collection. The hospital has taken the biometric details but things like phone numbers, emails, next of kin should be updated online we ask.

The @WFDeaf_org calls upon the global disability movement to recognize this ongoing disparity on the #CRPDCommittee and to work with us to propose signing deaf candidates for the next term of the #CRPD Committee. #NothingAboutUsWithoutUs #RepresentationMatters

[World Federation of the Deaf @WFDeaf_org]

We now have the opportunity to further promote disability inclusion. The WFD calls upon the State Parties to #CRPD to nominate signing #deaf candidates to the next term of the CRPD Committee, supporting progress towards a more equal global society for all.#RepresentationMatters

@HudsonAsiema something for you....

Computer vision allows your machine to "see" – basically, to process stuff in the physical world.

Sounds pretty cool and futuristic, yeah? Well, now you can learn it yourself.

In this course, you'll learn advanced computer vision techniques with Python.

If you want to improve your Python coding skills, build some projects in Python.

So here are a bunch of them - from a Madlibs game to a Sudoku solver.

In this 3-hour course you'll solidify your Python knowledge by building more and more complex stuff.

I have a question: does African stories exclude our rich #signedlanguages in the East and Southern Africa region? #SignedLanguages #Equality #accessibility #inclusivity

[DStv Kenya @DStv_Kenya]

It's important that stories have a target audience in mind when writing your stories: Mr. Timothy Okwaro Channel Director, East and Southern channels - #StoriMotoOnDStv #AfricanStoryTellersUnite
