The World Blind Union (WBU) has expressed its strong support for the World Federation of the Deafblind’s (WFDB) initiative, urging the United Nations General Assembly to officially recognize June 27th as the International Day of Deafblindness. This campaign aims to raise awareness about the distinct challenges faced by individuals with deafblindness, highlighting the need for global recognition and support.

We are extremely grateful for WBU’s endorsement and encourage other partners and allies to join in supporting this vital cause.
