This book synthesizes research on language development and
communication disability in Sub-Saharan Africa and highlights best
practices for providing speech and language therapy services to
individuals with language, communication, and hearing disorders
across the lifespan. The book brings together a wide range of
international contributions from various disciplines, such as
speech-language pathology, audiology, developmental psychology,
language education, social work, neurology, neuropsychology,
pediatrics, linguistics, pedagogy, and phonetics to provide
perspectives on problems, challenges, ideas, concepts, and models
to serve the people in Sub-Saharan Africa. Key areas of coverage
include: Challenges for speech-language therapists in the health
sector. Community awareness and the sustainable delivery of
services. Culture-specific support of communication and language
development in early childhood. Malnutrition, dysphagia, feeding
difficulties, pediatric HIV, and related issues. Communication
disability treatments, including assessment and intervention,
augmentative and alternative communication (AAC), and issues
specific to bilingualism and biliteracy. Inclusive education of
children with communication disorders with case studies from
Rwanda, Tanzania, Kenya, and South Africa. The Handbook of
Speech-Language Therapy in Sub-Saharan Africa is an essential
reference for researchers, professors, and graduate students as
well as clinicians, therapists, and other professionals in
developmental psychology, speech-language pathology and therapy,
social work, neuropsychology, pediatrics, special education,
community based rehabilitation, and all related disciplines.
