How to organise and run an awesome deaf accessible virtual event?

August 27, 2020 By Ahmed Khalifa

Post image with title: 'How to organise an awesome deaf accessible virtual event? - Deaf people are often forgotten about when organising virtual events. Here is how you can avoid that'

Even though video calls and events have been around for many years, the pandemic has forced many organisers to consider making their events, which are normally offline and in-person, as a virtual event instead.

Conferences, meetings, lectures, workshops, performances…they are all affected.

But deaf attendees are often forgotten about or ignored, so this post will look at how to make virtual events deaf accessible.

My frustration with non-deaf accessible virtual events

Post image with title: 'My frustration with non-deaf accessible virtual events - With more online events like virtual conferences happening, there are common frustrations for deaf people'

Virtual events like group meetings, webinars and online conferences have been around for a long time. But now that they are becoming even more popular (thanks to the pandemic), it made me realise how frustrating it is that they are not deaf accessible.

If you are an event organiser or you know someone who is one, and you’ve been thinking or running online events, you might not be aware how you are excluding attendees who are deaf from taking part but would like to take part.
