333 - World Hearing Day: A Global Effort to Improve Hearing Care

Every year, World Hearing Day brings global attention to one of the most common — and often overlooked — public health challenges: hearing loss.In this discussion, experts from the World Health Organization and the global hearing health community explain the purpose and impact of World Hearing Day, an international initiative focused on improving awareness, prevention, and access to ear and hearing care worldwide. The conversation explores how the effort has expanded into coordinated activities across countries, reaching policymakers, professionals, educators, and communities. Dr. Carolina Der, Technical Officer in the WHO Ear and Hearing Care Programme, and Dr. James Saunders of Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center discuss this year’s theme — Hearing Care for All Children — and why school-based screening, early detection, and public awareness are critical to improving global hearing health. They also share practical ways clinicians, organizations, and individuals can participate and help expand access to hearing care worldwide.
