SRF Kids News tackles disability stigma in a special sign-language episode

SRF Kids News is launching a special episode on November 27 to mark the International Day of Persons with Disabilities. The show will be available in sign language every Friday from 5 p.m., ensuring accessibility for all young viewers.

The upcoming episode will explore why the word 'news' should never be used as an insult. It highlights how such language can discriminate against and stigmatise people with disabilities, undermining equality and inclusion.

The episode will air on November 27, offering both education and entertainment. With sign language support, quizzes, and worksheets, SRF Kids News ensures the message of inclusion reaches as many children as possible. The programme continues every Friday at 5 p.m.
