Index to Papers

The International Federation of Hard of Hearing People consists of National Associations of and for hard of hearing and late deafened people, and parents' and professional organizations. The board members of IFHOH carry out their work on a voluntary basis.

We are working to help non-member countries develop consumer based organizations which can provide leadership for their people with hearing loss. Let us know how we can help your country, or how you or your country's organization can help us in our work.

IFHOH JOURNAL

IFHOH publishes a small magazine, called IFHOH Journal, three times a year. The current (acting) editor is Ruth Warick. The magazine is currently being improved and it is intended, eventually, to produce full-colour copies with several more pages and a much wider content, including comprehensive information and reviews about innovative technical and other equipment newly introduced on to the international market. It is intended that IFHOH Journal should become the leading magazine of its kind in the world. If you have a contribution for the magazine, please send an  e-mail to Ruth Warick.
