Did you know? Around 430 million people worldwide — that’s more than the population of the U.S. and EU combined — live with disabling hearing loss, meaning their hearing is impaired enough that communication and daily life can be seriously affected. This figure comes from the World Health Organization (WHO).

The WHO explains that disabling hearing loss refers to a reduction in hearing greater than 35 decibels (dB) in the better-hearing ear — enough to make regular conversation difficult without support like hearing aids or cochlear implants.

As WHO puts it, “untreated hearing loss can have a devastating impact on people’s ability to communicate, to study and to earn a living.”

Let’s raise awareness — and remove barriers so that everyone has access to the care and technology they need.

Today we’re highlighting Jordan, one of our incredible partner countries, and the dedicated local teams who make sustainable hearing care possible year-round. 🇯🇴

Through our partnerships with ZADCOM Relief & Development and Zarqa University, Hearing the Call supports ongoing audiological care, follow-up services, and community education long after outreach trips are complete. These trusted local partners help ensure patients aren’t just seen once, but receive consistent, dignified, and expert care within their own communities.

From refugee populations to local families, the work happening in Jordan reflects what sustainable impact truly looks like — collaboration, continuity, and hope that lasts.

Today, we recognize International Cochlear Implant Day 🎧

Cochlear implants have transformed access to sound for individuals with severe to profound hearing loss, supporting communication, education, and connection at every stage of life.

On February 25, we celebrate the technology, professionals, and families who make hearing possible in new ways—and the recipients whose stories remind us why hearing care matters.
