Activity Report 2024/25
Our partners
We aim to provide quality and sustainable audiological care to children in need through four interconnected
focus areas: awareness, access, capacity development and a new addition, advocacy.
Awareness: India
Educating people about hearing loss is key to breaking down misconceptions and ensuring early intervention. In India, our project partner Society to Aid the Hearing Impaired (SAHI) is
engaging young volunteers through its youth engagement program, equipping them with the tools to raise awareness and advocate for hearing health.
Access: Peru
Partnership with sustainable and scalable projects, enables more children to access audiological care. Our project partner in Peru, Oír Para Crecer (OPC), is expanding hearing care beyond Lima by training and equipping local organizations to provide essential services in their communities. This decentralized approach reduces barriers to care, ensuring more children receive the support they need close to home.
Capacity development:
Brazil
The shortage of trained hearing care professionals is a challenge worldwide. In Brazil, our project partner Academia Brasileira de Audiologia (ABA) addresses this by providing comprehensive audiology training. By equipping professionals with essential skills, ABA is expanding access to quality hearing care, particularly in underserved regions.
Advocacy: Jordan
In Jordan, Jordan University Hospital (JUH) and Jordan University of Science and Technology (JUST), have been instrumental in pushing for nationwide improvements in pediatric hearing screening. By collaborating with the Ministry of Health, providing expert training, and joining national policy discussions, they are ensuring that early detection of hearing loss becomes a priority across the country.
