Deaf Palestinians work on a traditional loom to make the Majdalawi's fabric on International Week of Deaf People 2022 at Atfaluna society for the Deaf Children in Gaza city. 0.1 SOUNDBITE (in Arabic) Amin Aroab 0.2 SOUNDBITE (in Arabic) Production Supervisor at Atfaluna society for the Deaf Children, Hussam Zaqout STORYLINE: The International Week of Deaf People has been celebrated during the last full week of September. This week, we come together to recognise that deaf people have our own communities, our own cultures, our own languages, sign languages, which unite us all. This year’s theme for the International Week of Deaf People is “Celebrating Thriving Deaf Communities”. Deaf communities have been expanding and thriving throughout the years and giving us all strength, now is the time to celebrate their incredible endurance at the local, national and international level. Textiles have been known as a traditional craft in Palestine since the thirteenth century. They are of two types: Majdalawi textiles and the yarning textile. The majdalowi textile originated from the Palestinian village of al-Majdal in the southern part of Palestine, not far from Gaza. It is woven by a male weaver on single treadle loom, using cotton threads combined silk thread. Footage by /APA
