Catalan Deaf Association

No content in this language yet.

The Catalan Deaf Association, known in Catalan as the Federació de Persones Sordes de Catalunya (FESOCA), is a federation of deaf associations in Catalonia, Spain. It exists to represent and serve deaf people across the territory and to defend their linguistic and social rights, including the recognition and use of Catalan Sign Language. As a federation, its history is tied to the development of the Catalan deaf-community movement and to the broader recognition of sign languages in Spain and Europe. The organisation operates as a non-profit entity and maintains a public website at fesoca.org, where it presents its mission, member associations, services, and campaigns. Its activities typically include advocacy with public institutions, accessibility and awareness projects, cultural and community events, and information services for deaf people and their families. It also works to promote the visibility of Catalan Sign Language and deaf culture within Catalan society. Because the supplied evidence is limited to a Wikidata identifier, this dossier does not assert specific founding dates, leadership names, or membership figures. The association is treated as an active institutional brand in Catalonia, with its identity centred on the FESOCA name and its Catalan-language and sign-language communications.
