Project description
Boosting language development for hearing impaired children
Despite advancements in early detection, hearing impaired children show significant delays in language development and speech. Existing plans fail to prepare those children for academic achievement and social participation. The EU-funded Comm4CHILD project aims to optimise the communicative skills and social inclusion of children with hearing impairment. The project will focus on mapping the factors underlying heterogeneity, advancing the understanding of the predictors for linguistic communicative skills, and ultimately, developing new intervention methods. The project aims to herald the start of paediatric hearing care entrepreneurship with its collaboration comprising academic, industrial, clinical, and community-based partners.
