Empowering vulnerable communities

Empowering vulnerable communities

8^th Sep 2024

We are thrilled to celebrate the remarkable success of our digital inclusion project, which has empowered over 2.1 million individuals in just over a year. Central to this achievement is our collaboration with eight community radios, which have effectively reached marginalized and remote communities often overlooked by traditional media. This initiative required a meticulous approach, starting with the selection and assessment of content relevant to the community, followed by comprehensive planning and scheduling to ensure impactful outreach.

Key to our success has been the regular orientation of radio hosts, equipping them with the skills and knowledge needed to connect with local audiences. We navigated the regulatory landscape to secure necessary approvals from the Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission (BTRC) regularly and engaged relevant experts to provide listeners with relevant information and advice. Script preparation and broadcast management are carefully executed to ensure content is both accessible and engaging, while ongoing assessments and reporting ensured continuous improvement and effective coordination.
