This program specifically focuses on awareness raising on deafness including causes, effects, laws, duties and rights, relating/communicating with a deaf person. The family/household members, policy makers and implementers (including the police, health workers) are the key targets. This plays a big role in creating positive attitude/practices towards deaf people, especially the girls.
