CIICA CONVERSATION: CI FOR INFANTS AND CHILDREN IN LOW AND MIDDLE INCOME COUNTRIES

TUESDAY 8th JULY 

SUMMARY NOW AVAILABLE

No Awareness, No Information, No Demand, No Services!

Carolina Der commented at our last Conversation This is an opportunity to discuss things which are so important and probably the best ideas and the best initiatives start in a conversation like this so keep going!

So we did, and invited you to join the group to look at ways of raising awareness of CI for infants and children where there are few resources and little capacity to provide services. How do we do this, provide information and support people to advocate for services?
