WHY HAVE A CONFERENCE?
Between November 23 - 25, 2020, Sense International Romania is organising the International Conference DEAFBLINDNESS DURING THE PANDEMIC.
After more than half a year since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, the world in which we live has changed and is still changing. People with deafblindness - children, adults or elderly - as well as their families, have found themselves facing more marginalisation and neglect, they are more vulnerable and more exposed to double isolation than ever, during the crisis.
Together with international and national speakers, we want to learn how the pandemic influences the process of communication for people with deafblindness, in what way can technology be of support, what are the challenges but also the opportunities during this time.
MONDEY, NOVEMBER 23
We are inviting you to watch the presentations of the first day of the Online International Conference "Deafblindness during the Pandemic", day dedicated to communication.
TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 24
We are inviting you to watch the presentations of the second day of the Online International Conference "Deafblindness during the Pandemic", day dedicated to technology.
WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 25
We are inviting you to watch the presentations of the third day of the Online International Conference "Deafblindness during the Pandemic", day dedicated to opportunities and challenges.
FOR WHOM?

WHEN AND WHERE?
