improve sanitation

Diarrhoea causes disease and infects water supplies. Diarrhoeal diseases are the second highest cause of child mortality after pneumonia. Diarrhoeal disease kills 1.5 million children every year.

Childhood Diseases

Childhood diseases: child mortality is higher in rural areas, and among poorer and less educated families - radio plays a vital role, reaching the parts schooling doesn’t and plugging the education gap.

improve maternal health

An unacceptable number of women die in pregnancy and childbirth each year. Radio communicates women’s rights, raises awareness of available healthcare, and educates on health issues - saving lives.

HIV & AIDS

Discussing taboo subjects like HIV/AIDS on radio helps remove the stigma associated with it and leads to decreased rates of infection and greater compassion for those who are infected.

Disaster Response

When disaster strikes, people desperately need information. Radio distribution is part of disaster response, enabling victims to receive critical information and advice.
