On 01 and 02 October 2022, the 5th Youth Festival of the German Deaf Youth e.V. took place at the CCH Hamburg. In addition to a wide range of lectures and information booths, the IDGS and DGS-Korpus project were also represented. At several booths the institute, the study programs "Sign Languages" and "Sign Language Interpreting" as well as research projects like the DGS-Corpus were presented. Participants could inform themselves about all contents. A particularly exciting station not only for children and young people was the wheel of fortune. In order to spin the wheel of fortune and win something, questions from the field of sign language and sign language research had to be answered.
