Project title: WHD2025: Changing the Mindset on UoA Campus

Primary region: WPR

Country: New Zealand

Event Description:

This is our annual event held on Medical & Health Sciences Campus, the University of Auckland, Auckland, New Zealand to raise awareness about the importance of hearing health and hearing research. The event is held on campus on 3rd of March 2025, which is the first day of our Semester 1 of teaching and we expect the campus to be very busy with students. Target audience is primarily university students and staff members. This year, in addition to showcasing some WHD official material and our own material for hearing research, we will also provide a free New Zealand Sign Language and Deaf Culture workshop over lunch time. This is a great way for every one to think about hearing health from different perspectives. We continue to change the mindset of future hearing health leaders and researchers from our University campus!
