I International Conference on Interdisciplinary Approaches for Total Communication: Education, Healthcare and Interpreting within Disability Settings

Effective communication is a powerful tool both for improving the lives of those people who are under the highest risk of exclusion due to special needs and for those who as professionals are entitled to work in disability settings. Successful communication is a promising horizon to promote fairness. This conference aims to bring together leading academic scientists, researchers and research scholars to exchange and share their experiences and research results on all aspects of communication in disability settings. The conference will be a great opportunity to establish international collaboration networks in multi-disciplinary domains.
