Abstract: In the last years, some foundations working with teams of willing teachers from Romania have developed projects involving Romanian deaf sing language, with the hope that his kind of projects will improve the integration of the persons with hearing disabilities in all the aspects of social life. The authors are making a review of the existing projects involving Romanian deaf sign languages from past and present, describing the progress made in the last years and suggesting possibilities for future possible developments. Main conclusion is that the effort of developing projects for deaf involving Romanian Sign Language (RSL) are meritorious but there is a lot of space for new future projects. These conclusions open possibilities for a lot of possible future research projects directions in Romania, such as deaf sign language applications or translation systems, made with the help of the computers.
