UNICEF Radio is an radio news service focusing on the health, education, equality and protection of children.
Communication Strategies
UNICEF Radio offers news and in-depth stories from around the world about children's rights and health created by, with and for children.
The audio files are offered on the UNICEF Radio website in streaming audio for listeners everywhere, and in high quality mp3 files for broadcasters to download free of charge. Many of the audio files are accompanied by text reports.
According to the UNICEF website, "radio still has the greatest reach of any of the mass media, especially in the world’s poorer and more rural areas. Every day radio gives voice to the concerns of communities, families and children and provides a channel of vital information both in times of peace and in times of crisis. That is why UNICEF is committed to supporting this medium by developing partnerships and providing a range of products." UNICEF Radio is part of UNICEF's audio/ video programme which aims to encourage media producers to tell the stories of the world's children, while creating greater public awareness, emotional involvement and social participation.
