Join us on Tuesday, 23 September at the Palais des Nations for a vibrant celebration of the International Day of Sign Languages. Organized by UNOG in collaboration with the Permanent Missions of Cuba and the Dominican Republic, this in-person event is open to the public. External visitors must register via Indico.

Sign Language Pop-up Café

Start the afternoon at the Salon Suisse between 1 p.m. and 3 p.m. with tea, coffee and cookies, on the house! Even better: learn how to order your refreshments in sign language and practice your new skills right away.

Official Opening & Interventions

The event will be inaugurated by Kira Kruglikova, Director of Administration and Focal Point for Disability Inclusion at UNOG, followed by interventions from the Permanent Missions to highlight the importance of sign language rights across the world.

Come celebrate, connect, and discover the power of sign languages in making human rights a reality for all.
