"75 Years of Human Rights"

In 1951, the World Federation of the Deaf was founded on a belief that deaf people everywhere should enjoy full human rights. Seventy-five years on, that founding commitment is inseparable from the work of our 138 national member organisations, the CRPD and its recognition of national sign languages and deaf culture in all areas of life. The work continues. Deaf people’s rights are human rights.

"Nothing About Us Without Us"

Deaf people must be at the centre of decisions that affect their lives. Deaf-led organisations play a key role in shaping inclusive policies and advancing rights. Meaningful participation ensures stronger, more sustainable outcomes for all.

"No Access without National Sign Language"

Accessibility is a human right, but it cannot be achieved without the national sign language. For deaf people, access to public services and information depends on the availability of national sign language services and inclusive communication. True accessibility includes national sign language at its core.

Wednesday September 23rd, 2026: Declaring Deaf People's Human Rights.

Declaring deaf people’s human rights is a call to action: to make these rights effective in all areas of life of all deaf people worldwide. It requires recognition, commitment, and concrete implementation. For deaf people, this means ensuring full access through national sign languages.
