Cross-sectional study on prevalence and causes of hearing  impairments in Karnali Province, Nepal 

Established in 1978, NNJS as a non for profit organization, has been working in Nepal for more  than 4 decades for promoting promotive, preventive, curative and rehabilitative eye care  services. Currently, NNJS is providing primary secondary, tertiary and center of excellence eye  care services through 27 major eye hospitals, more than 150 primary eye care centers and few  vertical programs throughout the country to combat preventable causes of avoidable blindness  and vision impairment. 

NNJS Nepal is implementing an Integrated Eye and Ear Health Program in 10 districts of Karnali  Province of Nepal since January 2021 financially supported by CBM Global. The major goal of the  program is ‘’Improved Quality of Life of People of Karnali by Reducing Avoidable Causes of Vision  and Hearing Impairment and Disability Inclusion.” 

Karnali is the most underprivileged province of Nepal. Status of persons with hearing difficulties  is yet to be identified. So, reliable, standardized, population-based data on hearing impairment  in Karnali province is of urgent need. NNJS with financial aid from CBM Global is seeking  consulting firms/institutions to conduct provincial level survey on ear and hearing impairment  based on WHO ear and hearing survey guideline.
