THURSDAY 26 SEPTEMBER 2024: 8PM UK; 9PM CET; 3PM EDT; 12PM PST; WED 25 SEP 5AM AEDT; 7AM NZ

Our recent conference, our Conversations and the World Report on Hearing highlight the issues of ensuring CI are available in low resourced countries. What are they and can they be overcome?

At our last CIICA LIVE, Carolina Der, of WHO, spoke about how to make implants affordable and accessible (see CIICA LIVE: CI ADVOCACY IN ACTION – CIICA (ciicanet.org). This is so important for low resourced countries.

Presenters at this CIICA LIVE event will come from across the globe and discuss these huge challenges in ensuring that the latest hearing technologies can be available for all – including ongoing services.

Chaired by Eddie Mukaaya, of Uganda, the speakers include Steve Kittur, Kenya, Jenny Perold, S Africa, Paige Stringer, Global, working in Nepal and Mongolia, Lusine Stepanyan, Armenia, Vahishtai Daboo, India, Marcela Varela, Columbia.

Full programme available here.

Do join us – this is a major challenge for ENT, audiology, education and therapy services today.
