Dialogue: 0,0:02:24.34,0:02:31.14,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So, President Petrucci, what can be said about initiatives like that bar in Bologna?
Dialogue: 0,0:02:31.14,0:02:36.29,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Innovative ones, surely, as compared to habits that create barriers
Dialogue: 0,0:02:36.29,0:02:39.10,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,between those who hear and those who don't, aren't they?
Dialogue: 0,0:02:41.09,0:02:51.20,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,[Giuseppe Petrucci] Of course, this Bologna bar is a pilot experiment,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:51.20,0:02:54.17,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the first experiment that really shows
Dialogue: 0,0:02:54.17,0:02:59.67,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,an integration between deaf and hearing people, where hearers
Dialogue: 0,0:02:59.67,0:03:04.22,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,strive to use sign language towards integration,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:04.22,0:03:08.48,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and thanks to this effort, they can can get a discount.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:08.48,0:03:13.04,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,As the broadcast shows, interaction happens very naturally
Dialogue: 0,0:03:13.04,0:03:17.52,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and I think that this experiment must be extended to other parts of Italy
Dialogue: 0,0:03:17.52,0:03:23.39,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and this is really important, because it is a message of integration and solidarity;
Dialogue: 0,0:03:23.39,0:03:27.96,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and it is very important for the recognition of sign language
Dialogue: 0,0:03:27.96,0:03:31.53,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and it gives us a feedback
Dialogue: 0,0:03:31.53,0:03:36.76,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,for continuing to advocate the recognition of sign language.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:36.81,0:03:39.36,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Seeing how deaf people
Dialogue: 0,0:03:39.36,0:03:42.94,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,communicate very naturally in a bar
Dialogue: 0,0:03:42.94,0:03:46.36,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,can become a way to communicate, and hence demonstrate
Dialogue: 0,0:03:46.36,0:03:48.72,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that LIS is a true language.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:48.72,0:03:50.43,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,[Tommasi] In other words: a way to learn to converse.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:50.43,0:03:56.07,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The initiative of the Rome Questura (police forces) is on the same line too.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:56.07,0:04:01.88,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Roberto Maugeri, how does this "SMS for life" work?
Dialogue: 0,0:04:01.90,0:04:05.15,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,[Mugeri] Look, the "SMS for life" project
Dialogue: 0,0:04:05.15,0:04:11.78,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,arises from the awareness of the need to ensure that deaf people too can access a fundamental service,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:11.78,0:04:13.77,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,which is the 113 emergency phone number.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:13.77,0:04:18.15,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Thus, in collaboration with the National Institute of the Dead (ENS), and in particular
Dialogue: 0,0:04:18.15,0:04:21.94,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,with its Rome province section, we developed this project, which consists in
Dialogue: 0,0:04:21.94,0:04:28.11,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,a system that can receive SMS sent by deaf people
Dialogue: 0,0:04:28.11,0:04:31.67,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and hence, through the reception of the message,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:31.67,0:04:35.54,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,enable an immediate response by police forces or by the institution

Dialogue: 0,0:04:41.80,0:04:45.36,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,[Maugeri] No: we have a protection system that
Dialogue: 0,0:04:45.38,0:04:51.43,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,only allows deaf people to access this service: they must sign up via a written request
Dialogue: 0,0:04:51.43,0:04:56.49,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,for the service, and when they request it, the Operation room
Dialogue: 0,0:04:56.49,0:05:01.60,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,of the Rome Questura will automatically send them an SMS telling them
Dialogue: 0,0:05:01.60,0:05:08.11,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that the service has been activated and giving them a restricted phone number - which must remain restricted -

Dialogue: 0,0:05:10.72,0:05:12.96,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,[Tommasi] I meant that it's a kind of technology that also enables

Dialogue: 0,0:05:16.57,0:05:20.81,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,[Maugeri] Yes, but the barrier is precisely that this restricted number must remain restricted.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:20.84,0:05:24.88,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,[Tommasi] ... yes: obviously restricted: obviously, we who can hear normally cannot
