International Week of Deaf People 2022 - Building Inclusive Communities for All

The International Week of Deaf People (IWDP) and the International Day of Sign Languages ​​(IDSL) are two initiatives of the World Federation of the Deaf (WFD). These two events are held annually in September and are based on the founding date of the WFD (September 23, 1951) to provide an opportunity for the Deaf to celebrate their community, language, culture and history; make the public more aware of the local deaf community; and recognize the achievements of the Deaf Community. This is also a special occasion for organizations that are related or wish to engage with the Deaf Community to build and maintain relationships with the Deaf and be recognized as an ally of the Deaf Community.
