We're calling on you to help change that: https://t.co/qivDmENvaK

145 years later Deaf children are still not getting the support they need in Education and continue to have lower attainment levels compared to their hearing peers.

[World Federation of the Deaf @WFDeaf_org]

💬 “In 1880, Milan tried to ban sign languages in the education of deaf learners. 145 years later, we say: No more.”

The WFD President made opening remarks at the International Congress on the Education of the Deaf (ICED) in Rome, Italy. 🇮🇹

Great to see @currys, @AMV_BBDO and @SparkFoundryWW featuring subtitles and a BSL interpreter, and bringing accessibility to the fore in advertising. We love working with businesses who want to improve accessibility for customers and employees.
