Welcome to Ishara Website
The Ishara Foundation (Ishara) was established in December 2005 by a group of deaf and hearing professionals in Mumbai, India. Ishara's main aim is to improve the educational achievement of Deaf children and adults in India. We are establishing educational networks in order to run continuing education classes, distance education programs, and literacy improvement courses. All of our courses are taught using the medium of sign language. Our ultimate goal is setting up full-fledged tertiary education streams for deaf students. We are associated with a number of national and international organizations and individuals who are closely involved with the field of bilingual-bi cultural education programs for the Deaf.
