The theme for 2026 is “United in Sign”, a celebration of unity, pride, and collective action around sign languages.
For the Deaf community, a message of empowerment and visibility:
“This is our language, our heritage, our identity. This week we lead, we stand proud — United in Sign.”
For the wider public, a message of inclusion and invitation:
“Every sign learned is an act of allyship. Join us as an ally, learn, share and support us.”
