On the occasion of this special day, MP3 addicts and other digital music players are invited to turn off their device. This symbolic break will show that everyone is committed to preserving their hearing capital on a daily basis.
This Prevention Day is relayed in more than 500 cities across France. Hearing tests, information stands and educational actions help inform the general public about various hearing disorders and educate young people about the dangers caused by digital music players.
Many health professionals also offer Open Days, hearing checks, conferences and exhibitions. Cultural and educational events are organized by colleges, high schools, or prevention and health services for young people and seniors.
