Description
Aim of the event: 
  • Promote mobility
  • Raise Awareness
Goal of the event: 
The goal of the event was to see what people know about sign language. Also teach them some signs.
We organised this event because we wanted to see how many people will be interested into different language without sound just with gestures.
Short description of the event: 
On March 20th – 27th we celebrate ExchangeAbility week. This week is created to raise awareness and to get more people involved in truly understanding the reality of the problems that disabled people have to face and encourage study mobility between students with disabilities.

This semester ESN KTU together with ESN KK, ESN VMU, ESN LSU, ESN LSMU and Let's Talk Kaunas / Baku Guest List on 23rd of March Is inviting you to Language exchange in Vero Coffee House to discuss disabilities and practise foreign languages. In this event you can practice Lithuanian, Russian, English, Italian, Spanish,Sign Language or other languages + you can get new native speaker friends.
How did your event go?: 
I think it went well, because many people were interested to lean for foreign language, but International sign language.
For next time I think we need more people who know sign language and more peaceful and quate place.
