Radio Competition 2006
Radio for Peacebuilding, Africa Awards Winners
The Radio for Peacebuilding, Africa team is happy to inform you that the judges have made their decision and selected the winners for the RFPA Awards 2006. We would like to thank and congratulate the large number of individual radio broadcasters and radio stations which participated.
Awards have been made in three categories (Talkshow, Drama and Youth Radio). The competition recognises the best programmes that contribute to peace. Programmes that reduce tensions in groups and communities, which enhance and value shared interests, that break down listener stereotypes, and that provide positive role models.
In general, the judges were impressed by the quality of many of the programmes which were entered for the competition. Choosing the best programmes sometimes proved to be really hard. For instance, in the Youth Radio section, the judges couldn?t decide between two programmes, and eventually decided to award the first prize to both of them. On the other hand, in the Talk-show category the judges decided to award only two runner-up prizes as they didn?t feel that the others were of a high enough standard.
The winners are:
Talkshow
First Prize (800 Euros):
- Inyanduruko (The roots of evil) produced and broadcast by Radio Isanganiro (Burundi).
Second Prizes (300 Euros):
- Africa Have Your Say produced by BBC World Service, African Productions (United Kingdom).
