Sensibilisierungsschulung für ein respektvolles Verhalten gegenüber gehörlosen Menschen: Im zweitägigen Seminar erhältst Du Einblick in Gebärdensprache und Gehörlosenkultur. Du lernst Begrüßungen, Absehübungen und den respektvollen Umgang mit Gehörlosen. Neben kulturellen Hintergründen wird auch die Bedeutung von Inklusion betont. Ziel ist es, Barrieren abzubauen und die Kommunikation zu erleichtern. Der Kurs findet in Deutscher Gebärdensprache statt und wird simultan gedolmetscht. Die Kursleiterin ist gehörlos.

I recently discovered the website https://CommandingHands.co.uk/

It is in development, but it's so exciting to see something entirely free that aims to promote the use, teaching, resources for and profile of British Sign Language.

The website should be fully up and running by the middle of this year.

Genuinely excited to see how this develops

Yes Zoom, what we really needed during this presentation on brain damage is balloons floating up across the screen because you don’t understand what sign language interpreters are. #SignLanguage

Amazing, important piece. WELL worth reading & @novicsara.bsky.social is well worth following too. Also, read True Biz - a BRILLIANT novel which should *so* be made into a film (GREAT #IP if any screenwriters/producers are looking for a film to make) #SignLanguage #ASL #BSL #Deaf #LangSky #languages

Vaahtosammuttimen kokoiset lapset ovat niin söpöjä, kun tarkkailevat intensiivisesti simmut suurina minun ja @rolle keskustelua. Kahvilassa erotumme joukosta, kun kommunikoimme suomalaisella viittomakielellä.
