In 2023, the European Commission will start working on its proposal for the European Disability Card. This flagship initiative of the Strategy for the Rights of Persons with Disabilities 2021 – 2030<\/a> represents an important initiative for persons with disabilities \u2013 including the deaf community. Indeed, besides the benefits it will provide, the Card has the potential to be an important instrument for the enforcement of deaf persons\u2019 rights to freedom of movement across the EU. 
Indeed, deaf persons encounter several communication barriers, as well as difficulties in accessing disability-related services whenever they move across EU Member States. This is caused by the lack of a harmonised approach to disability recognition and accessibility across the EU which could be overcome thanks to the use of the European Disability Card.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
