Breaking Communication Barriers to Enable Equal Social Participation for Deaf People
summary
Regional ENS Lazio presents two services to improve communication access for deaf people: OPEN trains deaf participants to produce sign-language news in a physical studio built from recycled materials and publishes videos with simplified signing, on-screen captions and age-appropriate visuals (reaching 10,000 views per video after four months). Comunic@ENS is a funded communication platform that supports video calls and chat across phone/tablet/PC, logs usage and provides blacklist moderation (reporting 10,000 users in one month in Lazio).
