  • On the eve of World Hearing Day, with the theme of "Changing mindsets: Let's make ear and hearing care a reality for all," the document was made public.

  • The idea of shared duties between qualified non-specialists and specialists forms the basis of the recommendations.

  • The strategies are for two focus groups consisting of adults and kids older than five.

  • They also contain information on how to use hearing aids, take good care of your ears, and support those who are deaf.

  • Less than 20% of the more than 400 million people with hearing loss get their needs for hearing care met, according to the WHO Director for the Department of NCDs.
