How do I become a guest auditor?

Deaf refugees Saxony is a team of volunteers from the sign language community of Leipzig, Dresden, Chemnitz and Zwickau (supported by the City Association of the Hearing Impaired Leipzig e.V.).
We are networked with sign language speakers, interpreters and social workers. We want to locate deaf Ukrainian refugees and provide them with care and support in one place. Therefore, we are currently establishing a network to provide (short-term) premises for the people in need of help, where they can stay for the time being.
At the West Saxon University of Applied Sciences Zwickau (WHZ) there are sign language students, as well as deaf students, who can support actively. In addition, there is the Landesdolmetscherzentrale (LDZ) in Zwickau, which supports us and coordinates the sign language interpreters in Saxony. Furthermore, the Center for the Deaf in Zwickau, as well as the Deaf Sports Club Zwickau (GSV Zwickau) offers the possibility to get into sign language contact. Deaf refugees are a group that needs special protection.
We have set up an e-mail address (Help.DeafRefugees.Sachsen[at]gmx.de), where hearing as well as deaf helpers can contact us with offers and can be put in touch with deaf refugees.
