Today, March 3rd, is World Hearing Day, and the message for 2026 is clear: "From communities to classrooms: hearing care for all children." 👂✨
Hearing is the foundation of a child’s world. It’s how they learn their first words, make friends on the playground, and engage in the classroom. Yet, millions of children worldwide live with unaddressed hearing loss—much of which is preventable or treatable if caught early.
In Malta, we are committed to ensuring no child is left behind. By integrating hearing care into our local communities and schools, we can identify challenges early and provide the support every student needs to thrive.
🌟 Local Support in Malta
If you have concerns about your child’s hearing or your own, help is available locally. Mr. Glen Camilleri, a dedicated state-registered Audiologist, provides comprehensive hearing assessments and ear health checks across several clinics in Malta and Gozo.
From screening for school-aged children to advanced solutions for adults, early intervention is the best gift you can give for a lifetime of sound.
What can you do today?
Check in: Notice if your child is struggling to follow instructions or turning up the volume.
Protect: Encourage safe listening habits with headphones and in loud environments.
Screen: Schedule a professional check-up to stay ahead of potential issues.
Let’s work together to move hearing care from the community into every classroom. 🇲🇹
