On October 26, 2024, the event “DAS ZEICHEN live” (ink to https://ggkg.online/das-zeichen-live/ ) took place at the University of Hamburg as part of the GGKG conference. The GGKG (Gesellschaft für Gebärdensprache und Kommunikation Gehörloser e.V.) put together a varied program of lectures and discussions on current topics in sign language research in German-speaking countries, concluding with a cultural evening.
Through networking, exchange and the promotion of research and teaching in the field of sign languages, current challenges and successes are highlighted and ultimately the sign language community is strengthened.
