EFHOH invites you to join our webinar on the findings of the third edition of the State of Hearing Aids and Cochlear Implants Provision in Europe report, exploring how accessible and affordable hearing care is across Europe and what challenges remain for people who rely on hearing technologies.
Access to hearing aids and cochlear implants varies significantly between European countries. Differences in reimbursement systems, eligibility criteria, waiting times, and levels of support can create barriers to equitable access to hearing care. Drawing on the latest evidence from across Europe, this webinar will examine these disparities and discuss opportunities for improvement.
Bringing together policymakers, hearing-care professionals, researchers, and representatives of hard of hearing organisations, the discussion will explore national examples in depth and consider how evidence can be translated into effective policy action. Participants will also have the opportunity to connect the findings of the report with the European Commission’s upcoming flagship initiative on assistive technologies and its potential implications for hearing care across Europe.
Date: 26 November 2026
Time: 16:00-18:00 CET (Brussels time)
Location: Online
The webinar will be supported by Real-time captioning in English, with additional languages upon request.
Registration is mandatory and available here
We look forward to welcoming you to this discussion on hearing care accessibility, affordability, and policy developments across Europe.
