Title: Making information about ear and hearing care available through Wikipedia and translation of pages into other languages
Description: Before World Hearing Day, the GPODHH organized a Wikipedia Edit-a-thon webinar to educate its members about how to make information about hearing and universal health care freely accessible. Their efforts were not only limited to editing and adding citations to Wikipedia content related to supporting families with deaf or hard-of-hearing members but also included translating information about World Hearing Day 2023 into 28 additional languages. Through these initiatives, they’re making strides in the dissemination of knowledge on these crucial topics.
