Event Description:

On March 3, a stand was set up by speech therapy professors with informative banners, trivia games on ear and hearing care, flyers with tips on preventing hearing damage from exposure to intense sounds and screening using the hearWHO application. We had the collaboration of a clown who made the activity more playful. Around 300 university students from various careers participated.
