Cross-Cultural Exchanges and Information Sharing
At DeafHealth, cross-cultural exchanges and information sharing are critical to develop stronger connections between our communities and deepen understanding of our diverse healthcare needs. In New Zealand, DeafHealth and Deaf Aotearoa came together to address common pressure points in healthcare across the lifespan faced by our deaf and hard of hearing communities, such as emergency preparedness, telehealth accessibility, quality data collection, community engagement strategies, and health communication methodologies.
