Wishing you a Happy Holiday and a Prosperous New Year! 🎄🤟
From all of us at Deaf-In-Tech, may your season be filled with joy and your 2026 be your most successful year yet!

Welcome to December from the Deaf-In-Tech community! Let’s reflect on the incredible progress we have made this year in making tech more accessible and inclusive. Time to celebrate our wins! 🎉

As the world marks against Gender-Based Violence, the 2025 global call to to End Digital Violence against All Women and Girls reminds us that safety, dignity, and respect must extend to every space, including accessible communication.

Deaf women face compounded risks, communication barriers, limited access to support, exclusion from digital safety tools, and higher rates of emotional, physical, and sexual violence. These barriers not only put Deaf women at greater risk but also make it harder for them to report abuse, access justice, or seek help when they need it most.

To truly end violence, we must break these barriers and build inclusion by:
Integrating accessible reporting systems like VRS and TTY.
Ensuring Sign-Language interpreters in police, legal, and medical settings.
Training frontline workers in Deaf culture and trauma-sensitive response.
Designing digital safety tools that are inclusive of Deaf users.

This , let us move beyond awareness and take action to dismantle exclusion and ensure safety for all. Equality is a right, not a privilege
