Outline of the event:
The Finnish Federation of Swedish-speaking hard of hearing people is an interest organisation. We raise awareness about hearing loss and the importance of access to good hearing care in Swedish in Finland. For this year’s World Hearing Day, we present a webinar on stigma and common misperceptions related to hearing loss, and experiences of unilateral deafness. We also have a social media campaign where we share messages relating to this year’s World Hearing Day messages and make a letter to the editor for a newspaper on the importance of hearing care as part of wellbeing and quality of life.
