Kia ora Marking New Zealand Sign Language Week is a great opportunity for us to celebrate the six years since New Zealand Sign Language (NZSL) became one of our three official languages. We've translated parts of our website to provide access to these pages in NZSL. Deaf New Zealanders can now learn more about Green Party policies and values in their first language. We are proud to be the first political party in NZ to ensure this right is respected. A huge number of New Zealand Sign Language activities are happening around the country this week and I encourage you to attend an event to pick up some words in NZSL – you will be pleased you did!
