This week is Deafblind Awareness Week. As being deafblind doesn’t necessarily mean that people are completely deaf and/or blind, there are many factors to consider to ensure that the 450,000 people in the UK can access and interact with your digital content. Factors such as the need for inclusive media, keyboard accessibility, alt text descriptions and more. Read our two guides which give top tips on changes that you can implement to assist all users.

The foremost limitation of an effective implementation of basic rights of disabled persons is the non recognition of disabled as a person in the society , they have been marginalized in absence of sensitive authorities responsible for implementation of Rights of Persons With Disability Act. For e.g. Railway police confiscating the Aadhar UID ID of Deaf persons and never return it back, Railway authority not ensuring disabled friendly procedures so that concession certificate is issued to the needy deaf person, employers exploiting deaf persons because they believe in "deaf culture" not word culture, Deaf person has been disrespected during interview for a Govt post , the Selection Board asking deaf person to speak before the Board after knowing it that he is under Disability Quota and he has mentioned in his application as Deaf person with Dr report. These are some of "many" such evil practises taking place in the society and perpetrated by authorities too. How far we are together fighting this evil !! #disabilityrights #rpwdact #deafcommunity #deafawareness #deafculture #constitutionalrights #fundamentalrightsofdisabledperson https://lnkd.in/g4pQPdvj
