Welcome to IVSS-Churchear
The International Federation for Pastoral Care among Hard of Hearing
The 21st International Conference for Pastoral Care among Hard of Hearing
The 21st International Conference for Pastoral Care among Hard of Hearing will take place in Oslo, the Capital of Norway on August 23rd – 26th 2024,at Haraldsheim, a hostel and conference venue beautifully situated with a magificent view over the city, and still only a short tram ride from the city centre.
The conference theme is “Participation is possible”, the same theme as for our EU Erasmus+ project on various topics related to hearing loss and incluision.
The conference programme is soon ready to be published. We can, however, now teveal that due to EU co-funding we have been able to set the conference fee as low as EUR 200, with an extra cost of EUR 50 for single rooms.
Getting there is also easy, as Oslo has excellent flight connection with most major cities in Europe and other parts of the world.

A call for new board members
Having served IVSS Churchear faithfully for many years some board members have informed that they for good reasons will retire at the 2024 General Assembly. We therefore call upon our members to propose new board members, preferably younger, who can continue developing our federation.
The our task is more important than ever. IVSS Churchear is needed more than ever. Are you our new board member?
Staying longer in Oslo?
A number of those who have registered for the 21st International Conference for Pastoral Care among Hard of Hearing in August have asked us if it is possibe to arrive sore days earlier or to stay some days after the conference – on their own account. If you so wish we recommend that you contact Haraldsheim by email at oslo.haraldsheim@hihostels.no to book the nights you want to stay. Do not wait to long. Haraldsheim is a very popular place!
