We are India Signing Hands
Building digital accessibility solutions for the Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing
RAISING AWARENESS
By maintaining the awareness, our main objective is to eradicate the false stereotypes about the deaf and to draw the Governments' attention to their demands for equal opportunities.
DEVELOPING ACCESSIBILITY
One of the biggest barriers for the deaf is their limited access to communication and information, cutting them off from important resources. We are in the process of developing solutions to this problem.
SUPPORTING THE DEAF COMMUNITY
With available resources, ISH gives support to the deaf organizations to further enable them to give valuable services for the deaf community.
Our Projects
Live Interpreting in Indian Sign Language
Live interpreting in Indian Sign Language (ISL) plays a crucial role in empowering the Deaf community in India by ensuring accessibility and inclusivity in various aspects of life. By providing real-time translation of spoken language into ISL, live interpreters not only bridges communication gaps but also promotes social integration and equal opportunities for the Deaf community, fostering a more inclusive society where everyone can fully engage and contribute.
Accessible Movies and Shows
Entertainment is no longer a luxury, but a basic necessity in this digital world. With our team of Deaf content creators and sign language experts, we translate feature length films, shows, music videos and podcasts into an accessible format with Indian Sign Language for 18mn+ viewers.
Accessible News & Entertainment
We are India’s largest News & Entertainment channel for the Deaf that produces daily news, information and educational content in Indian Sign Language along with voice-overs and closed captions.
Accessible ADs & Informercials
With an estimated population of 63 million Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing individuals, India is the largest market of Deaf consumers in the world. We help brands bridge the communication gap and access this untapped market by providing accessible and inclusive advertising solutions.

We also provide ISL translations of certain songs, musics and messages for the Deaf Community.
