Year when project approved: 
2014
Approved budget: 
US$20 000.00

The aim of this project is to promote the gender approach in order to contribute to the creation of an environment that is conducive to freedom of expression among women and radio broadcasters for more widespread popularisation of the culture of equality. One hundred and five external presenters and producers from 70 RIF-member radios stations will be trained in the concepts of gender, climate change and food security. After the training sessions, 70 programmes on climate change and food security will be produced, with the concept of gender as the overarching theme. The programmes will be produced on CD in order to provide the radio stations with a database on different topics. Finaly, the exchange of the content produced will be encouraged.
