Description
Community radio is an important source of information in Maridi, South Sudan. MaridiFM keeps people entertained and reports on local and national news. It is an effective voice, promoting public health and education for girls and young women. However, it runs on diesel and the motor breaks down regularly. With solar panels, costs will decrease and the future more sustainable. For people who have lived through years of conflict and war, a reliable radio communicates to people who have missed years of education.
