NOW-DEAF! Jury 2023, Who are they?
NOW-Deaf! will provide an opportunity for the ten finalists to meet and talk with deaf leaders with years of community experience and expertise in Southeast Asia.
The finalists are sure to learn from the experiences of the jury and gain helpful advice for their projects. PARD hopes that the ten teams will be inspired and continue on the journey of developing the deaf community in Vietnam.
Let’s meet the members of the NOW-Deaf! Jury 2023:
