Broadcasting is one of the most effective mediums for conveying a message to a large number of people. It is immediate and trusted. Developing countries and those enduring or recovering from conflict and civil war are often described as ‘Radio cultures’. Radio and television play a major role in informing and shaping public opinion, bringing up to date information to people that cannot be reached by any other means. Broadcasting is accessible to all, without the barriers of cost or literacy of the internet or other media.
