Outline of the event:
Around the world young adults are at risk of developing hearing loss due to the practice of listening to music at high volumes for prolonged time over their personal audio devices. Once hearing loss due to loud sounds sets in, it cannot be reversed. Once hearing loss develops it can greatly impact one’s ability to communicate, gain education or find and hold suitable employment. However, hearing loss that results from loud sounds can be prevented through raised awareness and appropriate prevented measures.
To combat these risks WHO created the Make Listening Safe initiative. Make listening safe aims to realize a world where people of all ages can enjoy recreational listening without risk to their hearing. Speech and Hearing care Clinic, Gwalior has planned series of activities to make college students aware of this .
“Hereathon”is an activity planned at Maharana Pratap college of technical education for same.
