Description

From the experience of the Europe Funded Deaf-led project Beyond Signs, we invite professionals and artists from Scotland and abroad to support and participate in the International Edinburgh Deaf Festival, to share a discussion about how to encourage more Deaf-led and Deaf-involving projects, to create better carrier access and self-representation opportunities for Deaf Artists and professionals, discuss toolkits, training and strategies to inform hearing colleagues and last but not the least to establish broader and stronger International alliances, looking towards future Creative Europe projects.
