BACKGROUND:
Farm Radio International (FRI) is the world’s only organization which is dedicated to support effective farm radio services in Africa.It is a Canadian registered charity that is at the forefront of using radio combined with other ICTs to serve smallholder farmers. It was created 30 years ago in order to boost the effectiveness and relevance of agricultural and rural radio programming. We work in partnership with over 560 radio broadcasters in 39 African countries. Our work is organized around three broad strategies: a) providing resources to broadcasters such as radio scripts, news and information services, guides, and manuals; b) partnering with radio stations and agricultural development initiatives to research, produce and broadcast impact driven programs that help farmers learn about and adopt specific new practices; and c) developing the capacity of radio stations for more effective farm radio standards.
