World Hearing Day 2025: Changing mindsets, empower yourself

Description:

Our organisation ONICI took the initiative to organize one event on World Hearing Hearing day together with 5 Belgium organisation of people with a hearing loss (AHOSA, Onder Ons, Vlok-CI, de 9de van and ONICI). We developed a joined video to show the impact of hearing loss, motivate them to come to action asap and tell them that there is a lot of information, technology and peers available to help them.
We called this joined network ‘Hearing network Flanders’. At 5 different locations in Flanders-Belgium different activities were organised on and around 3 March 2025, but the main video was shown at all places.
This joined action really had a big success. Together we reached more then 200 people with a hearing loss at our events, but also several articles were published in newspapers, journals ans local newsletters.
