Additionally, participants will gain access to 25 educational videos focusing on the most iconic species from the list, offering a deeper understanding of marine life.<\/p><p class=\"\" data-start=\"807\" data-end=\"1006\">MUFFIN will also produce a marine education manual for Deaf youth, featuring the newly created signs along with clear explanations and examples designed to engage young native users of sign language.<\/p><p class=\"\" data-start=\"1008\" data-end=\"1353\">The core goal of the project is to promote the inclusion of Deaf individuals by enhancing their access to specialized knowledge about the marine environment.
