Event Description:
2022 was full of activities celebrating world hearing day. We were able to reach +100,000 Hondurans with the 3 webinars with universities, the 3 TV interview that had national outreach, 1 newsletter publication, takeover from a local influencer talking about the newborn screening, several donations for adult audiometries and newborn screening, as well as auditive protectors for 2 winners of our giveaways. The entire team participated on the activities and we had exposure to use WHO materials.
