The 10-part radio series Teen Talk was
produced and presented by young people as part of a pilot youth advocacy
project focusing on reproductive health issues. The programme format was
determined by youth working in a series of participatory workshops. The
project intended to help young people secure future employment by
equipping them with the skills to be creative and to explore issues from
their own perspective.

16. International Children's & Youth
Radio (ICYR) Manifesto
"In recent years the number of new
radio projects that involve children and youth in production has been
increasing.... Where new initiatives are being set up to maximise
radio's potential, both for involving youth and actioning the rights of
marginalised children, small community stations have a vital role to
play but their efforts need recognition and support. .. This can be
achieved by the development of an internationally recognised Children's
& Youth Radio Manifesto..." -
http://www.comminit.com/Commentary/sld-6690.html Plans for an ICYR
Manifesto were first discussed at the 2001 Radio Kidocracy held in South
Africa. The conference included approx. 60 youth from local community
radio stations and representatives of national youth groups, including
refugee children and children living with disabilities. Points from
workshop session discussions now form the draft document, known as the
International Children's & Youth Radio Manifesto.
