This analysis examines the institutional and legal frameworks related to deaf individuals' rights from a sociological perspective. It explores how the concept of social inclusion for deaf people has evolved within international human rights norms. Social inclusion ensures deaf people can fully participate in society and have equal opportunities. Particular attention is given to the relationship between social inclusion and the principle of equality, especially in light of the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals.
