Farm Radio International

Objet publié

The goal of this program is to enable African radio organizations and practitioners to make an effective, sustained contribution to the efforts of resource-poor farming families to improve their livelihood. The program aims to build the skills, knowledge and capacity of radio organizations and radio practitioners for ongoing production and broadcast of high-quality, effective, locally relevant farm radio programmes. It also seeks to strengthen the role of farm radio in promoting gender equality in sub-Saharan Africa. The program provides 375 radio practitioners with two script packages per year, totalling at least 12 informational resources over three years. It also supports the delivery of three annual script writing competitions and 800 person-days of custom training to 120 practitioners through workshops.
