Acting4DHH II

Citizen social science for the benefit of Deaf communities

About Acting4DHH II

Acting4DHH II is a transnational project that builds on the success of the Acting4DHH project, piloted in Thessaloniki, Greece (June 2024–January 2025).

Acting4DHH II aims to scale up the citizen social science (CSS) approach adopted in Acting4DHH (e.g. Deaf-Hearing video series) by practices engaging Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing (DHH) communities from Poland, Slovakia, and Ukraine.

 

Outline of the project’s activities 

In the framework of the project, a series of activities that aim to socially empower and amplify DHH voices across Europe will be implemented.
Some indicative activities are the following:  

  • collaborative workshops;
  • digital storytelling;
  • cross-cultural exchange. 

Beyond these activities, Acting4DHH II will also enhance awareness on accessibility by generating valuable insights into inclusive CSS methodologies.

 

Funded by the Horizon Europe IMPETUS Accelerator 2025 under the “Sustaining Grants” category.
