Deaf education

NDCS. (2007, January 15). Health project Turkish Deaf Community. Up until recently, Turkish Sign Language was not used in education for deaf children in Turkey. Due to the lack of appropriate technological support, a majority of deaf children and young people have grown up with very limited language and literacy skills. Knowledge of health related issues among young deaf people is also very limited and there are virtually no health related materials available in Turkish Sign Language. Young deaf people often lack the basic knowledge relating to their health and their bodies that a lot of people take for granted! This project will work in partnership with schools for the deaf in the whole of Turkey to share health related information with young deaf people through workshops, videos and publications.
