Agroevolution Alliance Webinar
Rural Radio and COVID-19 with Jefferson Massah
Radio journalists have a special relationship with their audiences across Africa—a trust that is especially important in spreading accurate health and safety information through reporting, talk shows, social media and even jingles.
Jefferson Massah is part of Liberia Media Development’s core team of mentors, which is training and advising journalists at 30 community radio stations across the country on reporting on COVID-19. In this hour-long webinar, Jefferson shares his insight on reporting on the COVID-19 and Ebola crises in his country, from sourcing vetted scientific information to mentoring colleagues in rural communities.
Of course, the challenges and opportunities will continue well beyond these weeks of lockdown and fear: Jefferson also shares his thoughts on the changing roles of farm radio and agricultural journalism guilds as farming grows more intensive.
