Projects

International Development
Working with deaf people in Scotland, Malawi and Swaziland, we are developing a course curriculum to train, assess and register an initial 30 sign language interpreters and interpreter trainees - 15 in each country. The project helps to increase participation and effective contributions to be made by deaf people in education, health and civil society development in both countries, and gives deaf people across Scotland the opportunity to get involved in international development.

For more information on the project contact our Head office.

Deaf Health Project
Our Deaf Health Project provides courses, workshops and activities to help Deaf people who use BSL learn how to improve their own and their families' health. We also provide tailored, specialist training to health professionals to ensure that health services are fully accessible to Deaf people who use BSL.

For more information on the project, contact our Head office.

New Technologies
We are researching how new and emerging technologies - such as videophones, webcams, pod/video-casts and mobile technology - can be used by deaf people for communication and interpretation in social, community and workplace settings throughout Highland.

For more information on the project, or about using new technologies, contact our Highland office.
