The Metro South Asian Deaf Association (MSADA), formed on 10 May 2003, is an organization of deaf people from South Asian countries. The idea for it was born when members of the diaspora from the seven countries of Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka met at the 2000 Deaf Way organized by Gallaudet University in Washington, D.C.
MSADA is dedicated to personal, economic, technological, social, and cultural growth, while emphasizing collective self-reliance and increasing deaf awareness.
