FEAPDA has a new president

On April 26th-27th, the 27th Congress of the European Federation of Associations of Teachers of the Deaf (FEAPDA) was held in Malahide, Ireland. The topic of the congress was diversity in deaf education. The congress and the FEAPDA council meeting that followed it, had a significant meaning for KLÕPS, as Raili Loit, a member of our small organization, was confirmed as the president of FEAPDA for the next three years at the event.
