I wholeheartedly agree to and support the fact that everyone has the right to be taught in their own language. Language constitutes the very being of a people. Therefore denying the deaf the right to learn in their own language, which is sign language is like asking the deaf to stop breathing.

Signing this petition will ensure that governments and policy makers take into account the importance of using sign language in educational programmes in all countries of the world.


This ensures the right to life!
