Disability Inclusion – International Day of Sign Languages
September 23, 2024
To the Deaf Community in Malawi,
Happy International Day of Sign Languages! On this important day, Save the Children stands in solidarity with the Deaf community in Malawi, celebrating the power of sign language as a vital tool for inclusion and communication.
At Save the Children, we believe that every child, including Deaf children, deserves to be heard and understood. Sign language is not just a means of expression, but a powerful tool for breaking down barriers and unlocking the potential of Deaf children. It allows them to fully participate in their communities, schools, and families, ensuring that no child is left behind.
As we commemorate this day, we reaffirm our commitment to promoting disability inclusion and working together to create a future where Deaf children have the same opportunities to thrive, learn, and succeed.
Happy International Day of Sign Languages to all, and let us continue to champion the rights and inclusion of every child!
Warm regards,
Save the Children – Malawi
