Wiki for World Hearing Day 2026
Description:
The Wiki4WorldHearingDay2026 campaign is a recurring initiative organized by various research, educational, and hearing health institutions. In line with the 2026 theme, “From communities to classrooms: hearing care for all children,” the initiative intends to improve global access to free, reliable information on pediatric hearing and ear care. Participants are invited to create, edit, and translate content on Wikimedia projects focused on childhood hearing loss prevention, early identification, school screening programs, and treatment. By addressing knowledge gaps and supporting multilingual contributions, the campaign ensures vital information reaches parents, educators, and diverse groups worldwide. Open to everyone, it celebrates World Hearing Day by supporting collaboration and raising awareness so that no child is neglected because of ear or hearing problems.
