The Team International Service of Rotaract Club of Hinduja College organised ‘Silent Actions’ on September 23rd, 2021, i.e. International Day of Sign Languages. It was an online event to explain the importance of sign language, in collaboration with 20 Rotaract Clubs.

The webinar was facilitated by Vaibhav Kothari, who is a deaf entrepreneur and currently an executive member and
founder of Om Metals International LLC – an investment firm in the United States.

The speaker taught participants the basics of American Sign Language (ASL) and shared its significance. He also shared his personal life experience. Throughout the session, he was accompanied by two interpreters who translated everything he was signing.

The session was informative, interactive, and unique. The event successfully ended throwing light upon sign language for the over hundred participants of the webinar.
