We believe that by strengthening the skills of community journalists and providing them with necessary tools, Developing Radio Partners can enhance the quality and relevance of information reaching 'last mile' communities. This improved access to accurate information will, in turn, help these rural and remote communities to make informed decisions and drive their own positive change, ultimately leading to stronger and more resilient communities.  DRP engagements with local media help curb environmental degradation, reduce health risks, elevate women's voices and help communities engage with elected leaders.

"The ultimate beneficiaries of effective radio programming are those individuals whose lives have been enriched, whose voices are now heard and whose lives are changed - and sometimes saved - by what they hear on the radio."                                                                                                

-Bill Siemering, founder of Developing Radio Partners and one of the founders of National Public Radio
