On the Radar

What to watch next

  1. Próvolo Retrial and Sentencing Outcome

    Likely High impact

    With the acquittal overturned, a new proceeding against Kumiko Kosaka is now expected, and the result will be closely watched by survivors and Deaf-rights groups across Latin America.

  2. Australian Interpreter Shortage Reform Pressure

    Possible High impact

    Organized calls for reform from within the Chinese-Australian community add a new constituency to the interpreter-shortage debate, raising the prospect of legislative or funding responses.

  3. Early Sign Language Mandates in Mexico

    Possible Medium impact

    The Aguascalientes push for childhood Mexican Sign Language instruction could advance to formal policy proposals at the state level if advocacy momentum holds.

  4. Tamil Nadu Assistive Device Procurement Rollout

    Likely Medium impact

    With online tenders already floated for hearing aids and other devices, the pace and transparency of contract awards will determine whether supply reaches intended beneficiaries.

  5. Fraud Targeting Deaf-Community Impersonation

    Possible Medium impact

    The Canadian case signals a pattern of scammers using Deaf-services branding to target vulnerable people, and community organizations may move to issue warnings or coordinate with law enforcement.
