A Beacon of Light for Hard of Hearing Women
The Hard of Hearing Association of Tanzania (HOHATz), led by the inspiring Laura Pettie Kissakwa is at the forefront of promoting inclusivity for hard of hearing (HoH) individuals in Tanzania. In July 2023, HOHATz organized workshops for 20 HoH women, supported by the Giving Joy grant, to equip them with essential entrepreneurial skills, utilizing social media platforms effectively, and coping with mental health issues while navigating the business world as a HoH individual.
