À propos de cet audio

This episode features Silvie Koanda, the Co-Founder of Sound Waves Foundation - a charity which supports and empowers deaf children. Silvie is also a Picture Editor at the Economist.

Nicola talks with Silvie about her unique journey of being a mum with two deaf children who were originally born with hearing. This has fuelled Silvie's passion for starting her own charity to promote deaf inclusion.

We also discuss the importance of accessibility, the impact on mental health in the deaf community, diverse representation, and so much more!
