SCHOOL TOURS

We visited Garsen Primary school where we gave motivational talks to the pupils. The kick out Teenage Pregnancy campaign (piga teke mimba za mapema in Swahili) by HCR partner station Amani F. M has been so successful. The team has been hosting talk shows, call-in programmes and getting out and about in the schools of Tana River County, to promote awareness of underage pregnancy.

The station is using the UNA HAKIKA SMS text reporting system where listeners are given a short code which enables them to seek counselling or report any incidents where they feel threatened or at risk. Amani Fm also perfomed short drama skits to reinforce the message. We also distributed sanitary towels to the girls, among other gifts.
