Making Radio, Making Sense
Meet our incredible Mozambique team behind Ouro Negro! 👋
📻 Making Radio, Making Sense:
Challenges in Mozambique include gender inequality, poor access to education, child marriage, poor sexual and reproductive health and rights, and a lack of adequate nutrition. Using a radio drama and a trans-media multi-platform approach, we aim to disseminate a wide range of messages and interact with audiences in many languages.
The InTxunáveis radio drama tells the story of a group of adolescent students and the villagers of Nguva, led by their traditional leader Sirene. The storyline addresses adolescent sexual and reproductive health, child marriage, maternal and child health, nutrition, WASH, early childhood development, education, and other topics.
