Project title: Changing Mindsets: Empower Yourself to Make Ear and Hearing Care a Reality for All
Primary region: AFR
Country: Sierra Leone
Event Description:
Recognizing the urgent need to address these challenges, “Changing Mindsets: Empower Yourself to Make Ear and Hearing Care a Reality for All” aims to transform societal perceptions about hearing health. The project seeks to empower individuals, families, and communities with the knowledge, flyers, and tools to prioritize ear and hearing care as integral components of overall health and well-being. By focusing on awareness, capacity building, policy advocacy, and community support, this initiative envisions a future where hearing care is accessible, inclusive, and equitable for all.
Through this project, we will address critical gaps in knowledge and services while building a foundation for sustainable solutions that benefit current and future generations. By fostering partnerships with stakeholders, including healthcare providers, educators, policymakers, and individuals with lived experiences, we aim to create a ripple effect of change that extends beyond this project’s lifespan.
