香港的聾人有逾十五萬人，但手語傳譯員只有五十多名。在疫情之下，聾人朋友面對口罩的阻隔，連讀口形的機會都失去，被逼處於更深的孤立。作為健聽者，我們何不打開一扇窗，一覽他們的「無聲」世界，了解聾人社群如何克服生活中困難，以及手語傳譯員如何建構溝通的橋樑。
今次我們邀請到手語傳譯員 - 胡歷恩小姐，分享她成為手語傳譯員的故事，以及講解聾人社群的文化、聾童的學習需要，與他們的心理健康。我們亦會進行手語的基礎教學，讓同學了解有關手語的知識及與聾人朋友進行手語溝通體驗。
There are more than 150,000 Deaf people in Hong Kong, but there are only about 50 sign language interpreters. Under the pandemic, Deaf people have even lost the opportunity to communicate with others through mouth shapes under the barrier of masks, forced to be in deeper isolation. Why don't we take a step in their “Silent World” by learning how the Deaf community overcomes difficulties in life, and how sign language interpreters construct the bridge of communication between the Deaf and the Hearing.
In this session, Ms. Kimberly Wu will share her story of becoming a sign language interpreter, and to explore the Deaf community in the aspects of culture, education and mental health. You will also learn some basic knowledges of sign language and experience communicating with Deaf people.
