World Day of the Deaf is observed on the last Sunday of September to raise awareness about the lives, rights, culture, achievements and accessibility needs of Deaf people and communities worldwide. The observance originated with the World Federation of the Deaf in 1958 and is associated with the International Week of Deaf People. In 2026, World Day of the Deaf falls on Sunday, 27 September. It provides an opportunity to promote inclusive communication, accessibility, sign language awareness and equal participation in education, employment, healthcare and public life. The 2026 International Week of Deaf People theme is “Declaring Deaf People’s Human Rights.” This observance is distinct from the UN’s International Day of Sign Languages, which is held annually on 23 September.
