There have been huge changes and advances in communication technologies and assistive technologies in recent years. These changes directly impact people with hearing impairments and help to reduce barriers within society. In fact, there is such a wide range of assistive technologies available that it is often difficult to know what will suit an individual person best.
Our target groups are people with hearing impairments, and people providing services, assistive products, health advice, education, training and other support for people with hearing impairments.
Our activities included developing an online catalogue, providing detailed information (technical, user feedback, contact information and video material) on assistive devices. We also developed a methodology for educating people in this field. We tested our methodology by training 240 people from our target groups.
