00:00In the last 20 years, we have substantially advanced in terms of normative.
00:05We have in terms of the best laws, more accessible and more guarantees
00:10for the population with disabilities.
00:12But of course, the biggest challenge is the implementation of this normative
00:16and we have been doing important steps in the matter.
00:20In terms of education, for example, we have the guarantee
00:24that many people sordes have teachers in language language,
00:28they have interpreters in their schools, they have linguistics.
00:31However, reaching total coverage in all the country,
00:35especially in remote areas, is very difficult
00:37and that is one of the challenges we have.
00:39We also have to improve in terms of quality.
00:42And this is not only how we make students sordes come to school,
00:46but how they have the best quality, as well as their students.
00:50The same happens in other states.
00:53We have an important disposition of interpreters,
00:56but still not enough.
00:58Every time, the people sordes are more access to the services of the state
01:02and in that sense, we are going to be short as well as the state
01:05in what we need.
01:06However, in comparison with many other countries,
01:08especially in Latin America,
01:09that we ask for support,
01:12the people sordes have a guarantee of rights in many states.
01:16We need to improve in implementation, in more resources
01:19and in more professionalization of the personnel.
01:21The Convenience has an important emphasis in generating
01:23entornos pertinent linguistics.
01:26It would be important to clarify that people sordes,
01:28as well as people with disabilities,
01:30are a linguistic minority,
01:31that is equal to any other indigenous community,
01:34like the Guayu, etc.
01:35In that sense, what the Convenience asks
01:37is that people sordes have entornos pertinent linguistics
01:40and so it is happening in many places,
01:42both colleges and other states in which we respect the language
01:46but also recognized as a native language of the people sordes.
01:50This is a legislation, for example,
01:52that in many countries in the world still is not
01:54and the language of the language is understood as a gesture.
01:56Here we have clear that it is a language
01:57comparable to any other language.
01:59In that sense, we have many and substantial advances.
02:02Today, the Convenience of the United Nations
02:04has an important alert in the matter of
02:06contratation of support personnel,
02:07which we are making some advances
02:10to reorganize the offer of the State
02:12that allows us, with what we have today,
02:16to pay better attention to the demand that we have,
02:19but also to think in long term,
02:21and how we are forming more professionals.
02:23For example, in the country we have 400 interpreters
02:26for approximately 560,000 people sordes.
02:29If we have the resources,
02:31if we have the resources,
02:31then we will start a training of interpreters
02:36that allows us to cover this demand.
02:37There is a key issue that is the cultural issue,
02:40that is, that is,
02:41that the disability means incapacity.
02:44In the contrary,
02:45the disability means many capacities
02:47and what they need are opportunities.
02:50And those opportunities
02:50the society gives us.
02:52I think we have to generate
02:54many spaces of meeting.
02:56We have realized that
02:57that always,
02:58that a student knows a person sorda
03:01that they have a lot of myths
03:03that they have cultural issues,
03:04what they mean
03:05the personal and professional relationship.
03:08So,
03:09every time that more people sordes
03:11access to superior education
03:13and enter into many jobs,
03:14many of these cultural issues
03:16they have,
03:17and I think that is where
03:18the most important challenge is
03:20from the society.
03:21From the State,
03:22we have two important challenges.
03:23One is,
03:24to improve the detection
03:25early.
03:25The more quickly we detect,
03:27the more quickly
03:28the children acquire language,
03:29both of the signs
03:30and Spanish,
03:31and therefore,
03:31we will have a different development
03:33and reorganize
03:34the national offer for the population.
