The International Day of Sign Languages (IDSL) is observed every September 23 each year.

🌍 “No Human Rights Without Sign Language Rights”

It was first proclaimed by the United Nations General Assembly in 2017, and the first celebration took place in 2018. The date, September 23, was chosen to commemorate the founding of the World Federation of the Deaf (WFD) in 1951.

Purpose of the Day

✅ To promote and recognize sign languages as equal to spoken languages.

✅ To encourage early access to sign language and quality education for the Deaf community.

✅ To celebrate linguistic diversity and the unique identity of Deaf culture.

Fun Facts

👉 The most widely used are American Sign Language (ASL), British Sign Language (BSL), and Filipino Sign Language (FSL) in the Philippines.
