Strategy Plan 2025

Lehnhardt Stiftung Focus Groups

More than 15 years ago we launched the fortnightly PORA webinar : "Cochlear Implantation Knowledge". Already then, our focus  was on providing access to new technologies for experts and families. Advanced technologies, telehealth and artifical intelligence mean an increased challenge also for the exchange of knowledge and team cooperation.
To reorient our strategic activities we will form Focus Groups in summer 2025.

ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT

Early access to sound is the foundation for the development of spoken language in children with hearing loss.
This presentation examines the interrelated role of audiology within the philosophy of audiological verbal therapy (AVT), and highlights the critical importance of a collaborative, family-centered approach to care.

Participants will gain a deeper understanding of how early and targeted audiological intervention—through early diagnosis, hearing technology, and ongoing device support—directly supports AVT goals.

Using clinical examples and evidence-based practices, the presentation will demonstrate how collaboration among audiologists, hearing and speech therapists, educators, other allied professionals, and families promotes optimal hearing and speech outcomes.

Participants will gain strategies and useful ideas for strengthening interdisciplinary collaboration.

Curriculum Vitae Dr. Dr. h.c. Monika Lehnhardt

by

Monika Lehnhardt-Goriany was born in Vienna and graduated from the University Alma Mater Rudolfina. She obtained her PhD in philology, psychology and philosophy.

During her professional career she has held various positions in German, American and Swedish companies. 1987 she established Cochlear Europe in Basel, Switzerland. She gained broad experience in all aspects of treatment for hearing impaired people – various products (e.g. cochlear implants, bone conduction hearing aids, middle ear implants), surgical interventions, audiological services (e.g. hearing screenings, diagnostics, fitting of speech processors), rehabilitation concepts and methods and economical aspects (cost-effectiveness and cost-utility studies) over a period of more than 20 years.)
Her extensive traveling through Europe, the US, Australia and most countries of CIS strengthened her multi-cultural competence. Her language skills (German, English, Russian, French and Polish) are essential in establishing direct contacts to key opinion people in the field (surgeons, audiologists, speech therapists, surdopedagogs, economists and politicians).

Since 2002, she has been Chairwoman of the Lehnhardt Foundation.
