Deafness
Deafness is profound hearing loss requiring visual alternatives to audio content — captions and transcripts for video, transcripts for audio, sign-language interpretation for live events, and text-based alternatives to voice-only interactions.
About Deafness
Per WHO, approximately 466 million people worldwide have disabling hearing loss. For people whose first language is a sign language, written content may also benefit from sign-language video.
