Organization: Global Coalition of Parents of Children who are Deaf/Hard of Hearing (GPODHH)

Project title: Overcoming Stigma – Empowering Parents and Children

Regions: [86] [10] [14] [17] [20] [23] [102]

Outline of the event:

GPODHH will create and publish a short animation using children’s drawings on their perception of their hearing loss. We will depict overcoming the stigma related to hearing loss and use this as a tool to raise awareness and change mindsets. This will be created in PowerPoint and will be approx. 1 min long so that it is easily distributed and shared on social media, emails, and websites in honor of World Hearing Day
