Africa urgently needs to make progress. As the country's top media, radio can play a significant role in the progress. As a result, Deutsche Welle has created a new, educational radio program for Africa called "Learning by Ear."

It uses playful and entertaining radio dramas to present practical knowledge on topics such as health, globalization, the environment or technology. Via short wave and satellite, including 200 partner stations, the program reaches some 33 million people all over Africa. The works, features and items known as "radionovelas," are nearly all written by local authors and produced in six languages. We follow the production of a radionovela in Rwanda and the training of radio producers in South Africa.
