Every year, September 23rd is the International Day of Sign Languages.

In Japan, the All Japan Federation of the Deaf (a one-in-a-kind organization) has organized a national campaign under the theme of "Blue the world and Japan! ~Bringing light to sign language, the brilliance of life~" in order to spread awareness that "sign language is a language." We are calling for blue light up implementation in various places.

In order to let many people including residents know that "sign language is a language", we will carry out blue light up in the city in conjunction with the International Day of Sign Language.

Implementation outline of blue light up

We will inform you about the light-up implementation information and the state of the light-up on the Minato City Health and Welfare Support Department Twitter official account (link to an external site) , the Minato Disability Support App , etc.
