7th Deaf History International Conference

Location:
Stockholm, Sweden
Date:
4/8/2009 - 8/8/2009

 Theme-  "No History, No Future"

The life, education, work, heritage and fellowships also change simultaneously as history changes. These things need to be documented and researched. Without documentation and research our future can't be guaranteed, with a good life and community for deaf people. Therefore the future needs research and documentation of our history concerning our life, education, work, heritage and fellowship. The future and history are dependent on each other.

Why the conference will be held here is that we at the same time want to celebrate two-hundredth anniversary of Deaf Education in Sweden, which started in Stockholm. The Deaf Movement with many historical events follows close behind the Deaf Education through our fellowship. From many historical points of view the Deaf Education always has been a important core for our fellowship and has lead to Deaf movement and fellowship incl. politics, sports, culture, language, heritage.
