Sign language hour

To show their support to people who are deaf, the colleagues at CEDU were encouraged to try and communicate through sign language for one hour on Thursday, 27 September. Not an easy task! The exercise made many aware of the silence which surrounds those who live with deafness as a disability and how hard it is to communicate without speech.
