Audism Courses

Why are Audism courses being provided by Femaura?

Audism is a very new word, having only been adopted recently by a few dictionaries.

Research on Audism has primarily occurred in the USA to date, by the prestigious deaf university - Gallaudet University (in Washington DC). This has now started to spread worldwide.

Participating in an Audism workshop will change your perspectives of the Deaf community forever. This will facilitate you to, either; positively start a new journey as an empowered Deaf person, or widen your knowledge and enable you to support Deaf people, more, in the community.
