The Children's Radio Foundation is a non-profit organization based in Bedford, NY, that empowers youth in Africa to create radio shows and podcasts that address important issues in their communities. With over 5,000 youth reporters trained in 10 African countries, they reach up to 9 million listeners weekly through their dynamic and engaging radio programs. Their podcasts bring African youth stories to global audiences, covering topics such as mental health, HIV/AIDS, LGBTQI rights, violence, safety, climate change, education, and opportunity.
Using the power of radio, the Children's Radio Foundation provides training, production tools, and mentoring to ensure that their youth reporters' reporting is fact-based, informative, and responsive to the needs of their listeners. With a focus on building critical thinking, communication skills, and confidence, their programs not only educate but also empower the next generation of African journalists, thought leaders, storytellers, and activists. Through radio and podcasts, they are able to reach remote and isolated communities, making a cost-effective and impactful difference in the lives of millions.
