Makeni & Port Loko, 7th March 2010 –War Child developed children's radio programs with the local children's organizations 'Kids Arise', 'Child Forum Network', 'Child Empowerment Forum Network' and 'Media Student Network' to celebrate the International Children's Day of Broadcasting. War Child helped these organizations to develop radio programs for the local radio stations in Bombali and Port Loko. During these programs the children interviewed the deputy mayor and other key stakeholders about the welfare of children in the districts. The children also aired poems, songs jingles and held a quiz about child rights which made the program interesting and entertaining.The children prepared discussions that were pre-recorded and broadcasted on radio on the 7th. This was done in partnership with project officers from War Child Holland. The children discussed the pre-recorded interviews they had conducted themselves. These interviews aimed to reveal what stakeholders could do to support the welfare of children in the country. With this program War Child hopes to break down the barriers that exist between stakeholders and children and create a support network of influential people that can promote the welfare of children.
