"Hearing
International, with its partner
organizations and National Committees, seeks to
intervene against causes of hearing loss which affect
over 200 million people in the world in the conviction
that effective action could, over the next ten years,
reduce by at least one third the major causes of
avoidable deafness and hearing impairment, namely,
otitis media, anti-infectious agents affecting the
inner ear, congenital and hereditary deafness, noise
induced hearing loss and ototoxic deafness and inner
ear infections.
Hearing International will give priority to comprehensive
action to prevent and manage hearing impairment
and deafness within national and international programs
of health and development worldwide."
