The Opportunity to Communicate is a Basic Human Right

Communication is the most fundamental of human capacities. People need to be able to communicate to fulfill their social, educational, emotional and vocational potential.
Barriers to communication impair an individual’s ability to: 
• relate to and interact with others; 
• understand; 
• learn, share and apply knowledge; 
• achieve and maintain good physical and mental health; 
• participate appropriately and safely in purposeful occupations and/or leisure activities; and 
• have fair access to the justice system and other public services.
The opportunity to communicate is a basic human right. Everybody has the potential to communicate.
By Taking this Public Pledge of Support... 
• I recognise that the ability to communicate is a basic human right. 
• I recognise that everyone has the potential to communicate. 
By putting my name to this declaration, I give my support to the millions of people around the world who have communication disorders that prevent them from experiencing fulfilling lives and participating equally and fully in their communities. I believe that people with communication disabilities should have access to the support they need to realise their full potential.
