WHO announces small grants to support World Hearing Day events

World Hearing Day takes place on 3 march each year.
In 2015, IAP used the occasion to launch its statement, 'A Call for Action to Strengthen Healthcare for Hearing Loss' which was endorsed by the majority of member academies of IAP for Health.
Now, as World Hearing Day 2019 approaches, the World Health Organization has launched the World Hearing Day 2019 small grants scheme, an initiative of the newly launched World Hearing Forum and the Coalition for Global Hearing Health (CGHH). As part of this scheme, partners can apply for a mini-grant of up to USD 750 to cover expenses related to World Hearing Day activities. A maximum of 15 grants will be provided., based on the decision made by a selection panel.
Applications can be made online here https://cghh.usu.edu/smallgrants2019/.
Deadline: 14 February 2019.
