Conference

India has about 10 million Deaf and about 40 million Hard of Hearing people. Yet, little is being done for Education, Employment and Rights of this huge population. The public has little or no information about Deafness and Deaf people. As a first step in this effort, we are calling an International Conference with the main purpose of educating the public about Deafness, providing rich opportunities for the Deaf people and to maintain the awareness about the Deaf Culture.

This International Conference, the first of its kind in India, will provide a platform where all the Educators, Researchers, Parents of Deaf children, Teachers, Social Workers, Speech Therapists, Audiologists, Sociologists, Psychologists, Linguists and other professionals can socialize with the Deaf and Hard of Hearing people themselves for sharing their knowledge and experiences, finding solutions and having a global view on Innovative Technologies and Education for the future.

There has been a major advance in Technology that can help Deaf people in Education and Rehabilitation. The India Deaf Expo is also offering this opportunity to Educators, Inventors and Businessmen to showcase their products in Exhibitions.

We will also provide Entertainments each evening. Leading Deaf Artists and Performers will provide rich cultural programs including mime, drama, dance, movies and others - all related to Deaf and Hard of Hearing.
