Finding calm during chaos: Radio’s role when disasters strike
As extreme weather events grow more frequent and severe across Africa, radio serves as a lifeline for those most at risk.
Reliable systems to warn communities before disasters strike are still limited in many rural areas. Communities are working to find innovative ways to share alerts that help people prepare for and respond to emergencies.
This town hall will explore how Farm Radio International and its partners are working together to strengthen early warning systems through radio and mobile phone. You’ll learn how these initiatives operate and what it takes to build sustainable communication systems that support local action before disasters.
Join us to learn how collaboration and communication are helping communities find calm amid chaos and how your support contributes to building resilience in the face of climate challenges.
How radio saves lives and livelihoods during emergencies.
