For those of you who missed Justine speaking at UN So proud of you Justine Well done 👏👏👏👏 Sorry about the camera not being on Justine for the first few minutes, instead they filmed the interpreter doing the voice over !!!!! Then realised their mistake! 😒However my daughter, Dr Justine Durno was invited to speak at the United Nations Assembly in NYC today, ahead of the book launch of “Women and Girls in Science” in which Justine wrote a chapter in. Here she speaks about deaf women in science, why there’s a lack of deaf women in science, language deprivation, poor education of deaf children and Audism in science/society and so on. She delivered this speech PERFECTLY!! Soooooooo proud! Please SHARE around, this is a massive thing for the deaf community and gives us all much needed visibility!
