Burundi sign language (da02)

Deafnet-NID South Africa developed a gestures-DVD containing 500 gestures in Burundian sign language. This DVD has been spread all over in Burundi. Schools for deaf, parents of deaf children, communities and organizations working for deaf people can use it to communicate with deaf persons. On top the possibilities and restrictions of being deaf are explained. This will provide more understanding around the difficulties and misunderstandings deaf persons meet in daily life. Because lots of people do not possess a computer or DVD installation, this collection of sign gestures has been published as well in the shape of drawings.
