29 years ago, deaf people had to hide to communicate in sign language. Tonight, the first sign café is taking place in Biel. The idea of this evening is to discover the world of deaf people, and to learn a few signs to order a dish and a drink. Priscilla Knuchel is a social worker at Pro-infirmis, she explains why she wanted to organize a sign café in Biel… SOUND The first sign café is tonight between 7 p.m. and 11 p.m. at La Rotonde in Biel. Come have a drink or enjoy a good meal while discovering a rich world and people who are just waiting to communicate with you.
