KIU, Western  Campus - Ear and hearing health shapes how we learn, work, and connect, yet it’s often neglected until problems arise. With over 1.5 billion people globally living with hearing loss, much of which is preventable, there is an urgent need for awareness, early intervention, and shared responsibility across health, education, media, and the wider community.

With this in mind, Kampala International University (KIU) through the Directorate of Research, Innovation, Consultancy, and Extension (DRICE), in collaboration with the Faculty of Clinical Medicine and Dentistry, KIU-WC, invites students, staff, health workers, and the general public to a hybrid session on ear and hearing health.
