The City Council of Fuenlabrada offers a free course to learn how to communicate with deaf and deafblind people. The training will take place on September 15 and aims to promote social inclusion.
Fuenlabrada has taken a significant step towards social inclusion by opening the registration period for a free workshop that teaches how to communicate with deaf and deafblind people. This course, organised by the Department of Social Welfare, is designed for those who wish to acquire basic skills in accessible communication. The session will be held on September 15, from 17:00 to 19:00 hours, at the Social Services Centre, located at Calle Móstoles, 68. During this meeting, participants will learn fundamental concepts that will enable them to establish effective first contact with people who have hearing disabilities. The goal is to facilitate a more inclusive and accessible interaction in their daily lives.
This workshop is a prerequisite for those interested in participating in the subsequent introductory sign language workshop, scheduled to begin in October. The training not only aims to educate about sign language but also to provide practical tools that help break down the communication barriers existing between hearing individuals and those with hearing disabilities.
Registrations are open until September 14, providing a unique opportunity for all individuals over 16 years old who are interested in improving their communication skills. Interested parties can easily register through the Fuenlabrada City Council website.
From the City Council, they highlight that this initiative is part of a broader effort to promote social inclusion and eliminate the barriers faced by deaf and deafblind people. In a context where the importance of diversity and inclusion is increasingly recognised, this type of training is essential for building a more equitable society.
As the date of the course approaches, good participation from residents is expected, which could indicate a growing interest in learning about accessibility-related topics. For those wishing to attend the workshop, it is advisable to register as soon as possible given the established limit.
