Approximately 75% of
Deaf adults have functional literacy problems and 33%
are illiterate in South Africa. |
| |
This is largely due
to the inequitable resource allocation of our past.
Illiteracy amongst the majority of Deaf |
| |
adults is highest in
KwaZulu Natal. The ABET Programme equips Deaf
adults with the skills necessary |
| |
to function in
broader society |
| |
|
| |
The classes cover
literacy, numeracy, basic sign language and life
skills |
