| Brief Introduction |
The Japanese Federation of the Deaf (JFD) is the sole national organization of the Deaf in Japan, with member associations of the Deaf in 47 prefectures throughout the country. The aim of JFD is to realize full participation and equality in society for the Deaf. JFD's basic concept is to establish an environment in which the Deaf are able to conduct independent activities and movements, gain social self-reliance through the use of Sign Language, and in which the human rights of the Deaf are protected. |
