Recognition of Azerbaijani Sign Language

June 3, 2025 | Advocacy work

The WFD warmly congratulates the Republic of Azerbaijan on the official recognition of Azerbaijani Sign Language.

This historic step is a major milestone for the rights of deaf people in Azerbaijan. National sign languages are fundamental for human rights. Their recognition is essential for equality, inclusion, and full participation in society.

We also commend the work by the national deaf association, deaf communities, researchers, and government institutions — including the launch of the first online Azerbaijani Sign Language dictionary.
