By 2050, nearly 2.5 billion people are projected to have some degree of hearing loss as per a recent World Health Organisation’s (WHO) report. In India, 63 million people (6.3%) suffer from significant auditory loss and four in every 1,000 children are suffering from severe to profound hearing loss.
For children diagnosed and intervened at a very early stage, regular pre-school programmes are the best option. However, assistance from special teachers would be required so that the child develops good reading and writing skills, but for children who are diagnosed late or those who have not developed adequate functional language must be enrolled in special pre–school programmes.

Many celebrities may soon join hands with the Mysuru-based All India Institute of Speech and Hearing (AIISH) for spreading awareness on the prevention of hearing loss and deafness.
The AIISH is making efforts to get the celebrities’ support, especially Kannada film stars, in reaching out to the people educating them on vocal and auditory functions and what they are supposed to do if anybody was facing hearing loss.
“The AIISH is trying to rope in celebrities for spreading awareness on communication disorders. I too spoke to a Kannada film star who has assured us of lending help after completing his current film project. Another big star is also being approached to support the awareness. The AIISH has world-class infrastructure and has established a reputation for its expertise in addressing communication disorders,” said Mysuru MP Pratap Simha, at a function at AIISH here on Friday.
