If you are a student at the Special Education Department within the Faculty of Psychology and Education Sciences, Babeș Bolyai University Cluj Napoca, Sense International Romania invites you to take part to the essay competition "What would a day in my life look like, if I were a person with deafblindess?"
We invite you to imagine life with deafblindness, we challenge you to experience deafblindness, write down your thoughts, describe your personal experiences in this theme. We dedicate this competition to Professor Vasile Adamescu now, when we commemorate 3 years since we lost him.
Below, you can find some guiding resources, but the internet is full of inspiring stories about people with deafblindness:
