Title: Raising Awearness on Ear and Hearing Care for All and Making it a Reality at the Local Community Level

Description:

The Bududa District Hard Of Hearing Association (BDHOHA) marked World Hearing Day by promoting awareness and endorsing the inclusion of ear and hearing care in the primary healthcare system. This specifically included advocating for expanded ear screening, treatment, and cleaning services at healthcare centers. We urged the government and NGOs collaborating with the Ministry of Health to increase the number of audiology experts at primary healthcare centres. This would ensure comprehensive ear and hearing care services are available for all individuals experiencing ear-related illnesses, including rehabilitation services.
